Bug #: 43446
Summary: BUGZILLA: Drop-down lists need to be unnecessarily
scrolled
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Status Whiteboard: BSA
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: WWW
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
There are 3 drop-down lists on the LibreOffice bug reporting page (at
https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/bug/), for Component, Sub-component and
Version. Each of these has a vertical scrollbar, and the Sub-component one
also has a horizontal scrollbar. Why? It means extra clicks to get what you
want. Having to scroll a list horizontally is especially unjustifiable, unless
there are very long lines in it (in which case the wrong text has probably been
chosen for such lines). In the case of the Version list, the commonest choices
- the later versions - are always at the bottom of the list and will always
need to be scrolled to.
I would suggest that at least the Component and Sub-component drop-down lists
be resized so that they don't need to be scrolled in any direction at all. The
Version list is longer, so it may not be realistic to resize it in this way.
Perhaps, for this one, have a shorter top-level list containing just the major
and minor version numbers ('LibO 3.3', 'LibO 3.4', etc), and have sublists and
sub-sublists come from each of these to choose the point release number ('LibO
3.4.4' etc) and the release phase ('RC1' etc).
