           Summary: UI: Make the animation effect list a drop down in the
                    sidebar
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.4.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

         Component: UI

Description:
UI: Make the animation effect list a drop down in the sidebar

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Impress
2. Open the sidebar -> Animation Tab.. (Notice an empty effect list)
3. Insert a shape
4. Press Add Effect button
5. Notice the effect list being enabled

Actual Results:
A) The effect list is taking lots of space.. I find the list of existing
animations for more interesting (and those can be pretty long.. 
B) The advantage of partly visible list instead of a drop down is unclear to me
C) There is always a risk you incidentally click on some entry in the effects
list (and changing the effect un-intentionally)

Expected Results:
A simply ordinary drop down for selecting an effect..

The only problem might be if the categorizations.. but not sure if those labels
are needed (still opinion those being trivial and distracting). A separator
line would do enough, IMHO


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
