Bug ID: 87040
Summary: Floating toolbar feature request
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Hi, i love how i can detach a toolbar (e.g. formatting toolbar) from its
default location/dock and have it floating within the document. What i request
is that the floating toolbar appear just immediately after mouse pointer or
anywhere as close as possible to the selected object or words or characters or
images/picture, and only after i've made a selection. And the floating toolbars
should disappear if i just click within the document, meaning i have not
selected anything.
For example, i have selected a word, or sentence, or phrase within a writer
document, floating "formatting toolbar" appears immediately after mouse
pointer.
Presently, the floating toolbar appears only on where you last positioned it.
Don't we want an efficient use of mouse movement (ergonomics)?
just like in this examples:

Also, if possible make it a little smaller and borderless so its not too
obtrusive or not occupying too much space in the document screen. If you make
it borderless, we should still be able to drag wherever we want to. And right
click menu on it should still be enabled.
And also if i have my sidebar enabled (meaning it is visible, which includes
the "formatting" icons), this autohide floating toolbar should be disabled (or
i can have a choice which ones to autohide?)
