--- Comment #12 from Andrew <[email protected]> --- > The ability to easily choose a dropdown line style, without going > through the dialog, could be very useful feature. yes it would be a very useful feature... to also have with strike through and over line. > In general I don't like the idea of a dropdown with commands that are not a > variation of the main button. Dropdown items should either belong to the > same toggle group as the main button, so that they can replace each other > (like text alignment, or shapes), why is so hard to think of this not as just the underline button but the line button. under, through, over. These really are not that different just their position related to characters. Would you have a strike through and over line split button? because they could have line styles too. if they could use the same split button why can't they be in the same split button? > or there should be no main button (which is not an option for underline as > it's much used).

That's exactly the purpose of hidden buttons, > to have there much useful buttons, when there is no enough room for them by > default, so that a user could easily add them, without wasting time with the > toolbar customization dialog.

So because these buttons are rarely used they should be hidden, actually they should not even be hidden buttons. yet putting them in the split buttons drop down makes it hard for people discover them... tell me how are people going to discover a hidden button/button not in the toolbar at all? It took me a long time to discover that you could customize the tool bars and I am an advanced user. But even the newest user to office tools will eventually decide to look at whats in the split button just like they will when they choose more colors. again IMHO I don't think it is a big deal at all to place these three buttons in the same split button. as they do relatively the same thing. Put a line somewhere around text. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
