            Bug ID: 155953
           Summary: Toolbar usability is poor in narrow windows because
                    icons fail to wrap.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

When the document window is narrow or small then the toolbars fail to wrap,
causing buttons to cut off at right and that kills usability by forcing the
user to use the 'hidden' button feature.

There should be an option to enable multi-line wrap of toolbars, or less
ideally the toolbars should be split into multiple smaller groups of icons so
they can be manually re-arranged to fit. If the toolbar wraps then of course
the page will have to re-adjust in the same way as it does when resizing the
window.

I am able to wrap the icons when undocked, by increasing the toolbar height,
but redocking the toolbar loses the height setting. We need to be able to wrap
in-place while docked.

It is common to solve limited screen-space through use of narrow windows, so
this is an obvious and impactful solution to a common problem.
