Bug ID: 88241
Summary: Sidebar: Undocked sidebar opened by call to Styles and
Formatting is not dismissed with another call
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 4.4.0.1 rc
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
Summoning the "Styles and Formatting" dialog when the sidebar is in undocked
mode opens the floating sidebar pointed to "Styles and Formatting" as it
should. (Well, mostly as it should, since you'll run into bug 83546.)
Attempting to call the "Styles and Formatting" dialog again should dismiss the
sidebar. This would make it behave exactly like the old "Styles and
Formatting" dialog. Unfortunately,
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start new writer document
2. Make sure the sidebar is undocked (sidebar menu -> undock)
3. Fully close sidebar if it's up (view -> uncheck sidebar) Note that you
currently can't close the sidebar using the "X" in the window decorations as
this will tickle bug 87217 and simply reenable the normal sidebar.
4. Summon "Styles and Formatting" (Press the F11 key, or Format->Styles and
Formatting)
5. Attempt to dismiss "Styles and Formatting" sidebar (Press the F11 key, or
Format->Styles and Formatting)
Expected:
This second calling of "Styles and Formatting" should dismiss the current
floating sidebar and behave exactly like the old dialog in 4.3 and below.
Actual:
The floating sidebar stays activated and pointed to "Styles and Formatting."
This is probably due to undocked sidebars are not able to minimize down to just
a strip of activator buttons like a normal docked sidebar.
Notes:
Of course, if we had another sidebar component activated, another call to
"Styles and Formatting" should simply switch to the "Styles and Formatting"
component instead of dismissing the sidebar. I think this would be the most
intuitive behavior.
This same behavior should also be applied to opening/dismissing the gallery,
navigator, and any other sidebar categories.
I tested this under LibreOffice 4.4.0.1 rc1 using 32bit Fedora17.
