Priority: medium
Bug ID: 83202
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: duplicate tools/toolbars: in the sidebar and 'normal'
Severity: minor
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.2.5.2 release
Component: Libreoffice
Product: LibreOffice
in addition to selecting / activating one of the groups in the sidebar, the
same functions/tools can be invoked from the pull-down-menues (e.g.
(View->)Navigator(F5), or (Tools->)Gallery) so I may have two areas/sub-windows
with identical functionality
for me, this is a bug - or is it intended to be an (not yet documented) feature
??
also, in the side-bar -> properties I find a selection of things I usually
invoke via Format -> Cells; this looks confusing to me.
Having a choice to 'dock' some functions/sub-windows at the left-hand border of
the main window is a really interesting and valueable feature (I do very much
appreciate the configurable set of sub-windows - docked or independent - in
some programming environments, e.g. in Eclipse), but the side-bar as it is now
is primarily confusing rather than being helpful.
Please consider to drop _this_ kind of side-bar (which I never saw/never used
before) or try to advance to a kind of layout which is totally configurable,
with multiple docked or independent sub-windows (i.e. 'eclipse-like'), which -
I know - would not be easy to build.
Thanks a lot.
Carsten
