Bug ID: 170352
Summary: Thesaurus Dialogue is not resizable
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
The thesaurus (Writer, Calc or Impress) appears in a tiny dialogue box with
both vertical and horizontal scroll bars. This means that at most 5 alternative
words/synonyms can be seen at any one time, however in many cases there are
some 30 or more alternatives to a word.
It feels like trying to view the Grand Canyon through a pinhole.
The dialogue should be able to be resized as desired so that the full width and
height of the list can be seen if the user wants to. Ideally the dialogue
should be dockable in the right hand sidebar with a button like Properties,
Styles, Gallery, Navigator, but only if desired - the default should not be
docked.
This is happening in 25.8.4.2 on Debian (installed from standard .deb from the
Debian repository), but I suspect this is the same in all versions.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a document in Writer, Calc, Impress
2. Type some text and select (select the cell in Calc)
3. Go to Tools -> Thesaurus (or access via button, context menu, however you
like)
4. The Thesaurus dialogue is tiny!
5. Attempt to resize the Thesaurus dialogue, but no options exist.
Actual Results:
The Thesaurus dialogue is tiny and has both vertical and horizontal scroll bars
in many cases, though this depends on the word.
No options exist to resize the Thesaurus dialogue.
Expected Results:
1. Should be able to resize the Thesaurus dialogue.
2. Preferably have an option to dock the Thesaurus in the right sidebar with an
icon like Styles, Gallery, Navigator, but only if desired - the default should
not be docked.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Not related to https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool/issues/5584 as
that bug is only about the font size. This bug is about the dialogue size.
