https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151377 --- Comment #10 from Telesto --- Another remark, which can be split, but not separated 1. Open Impress (empty slide) 2. Sidebar -> Animation deck 3. Select click here to add text textbox 4. You need to Press Add to enable the effect list. So you're always inserting (Entrance -> Appear) by default. The next step is modifying the inserting effect to the one you want. I would expect the list of available animations being enabled by default.. Being able to pick the right entry, before insertion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Rearranging is not the primary function. Any new animation add will but at the bottom of the list. I'm personally don't now in advance how my presentation will look like. I have some notion what I want to achieve, the core building blocks. However the details are designed along the way. You press F5, run the slide show, and thing.. well here an textbox is missing, that animation should be first etc. Same as 'improving' changing some presentation someone else build.. There is no hierarchical order of importance..

Still undecided. For sorting up/down, tend to for yes. Except it gets cramped if you set the sidebar to minimum size.. And the slide sorter bar doesn't have those buttons... > > The Slide sorter bar has no visual buttons for arranging or adding slides. > > Arranging or adding or deleting slides is done by Drag & Drop (and/or) > > Keyboard Control (and/or) Context Menu > > You need some means to pick the animation from a long list, which is not the > fact for the slide pane. Dragging items is possible as well. I have no clue what this is about. What intended to say. The Slide Sorter bar has no button controls for moving existing slides up/down. It can be done by drag & drop or cut/paste, keyboard ALT+SHIFT+PAGE UP or entry in the right click context menu. There is also no Delete Slide button. Done by keyboard delete/backspace or right click context menu. I don't see the additional value of a delete button in the animation deck of the sidebar.. A difference between slide sorter bar and the sidebar animation panel is that new slides can by added everywhere to the list. Where new animations end up at the bottom of the list by design. Consequence: A)Sorting of animations being needed more often :-( B)Greater distances to move, with long list of animations. * The ability to expand the animation list, improves drag & drop, but has still limitations with lots of animations * Allowing cut/paste of animations maybe also option (obviously only functioning within the animation panel) * Moving animations up/down with keyboard shortcut (could also have a move to top shortcut) * Making the list more compact would improve the oversight too. The old sidebar - say LibreOffice Impress 4.4.7.2 - is pretty compact. Not proposing to revert tot 4.4.7.2 layout :-). But I do ask myself, can the animation icon (say the pause button icon in case of Misc Effects, Toggle Pause) not be aligned with the on click icon. So both icons in the same row. Currently text spacing between: Shape Name & effect being pretty large.

We could replace the slider by a collapsing section similar to the print dialog. There are some use cases where you want to maximize the lower list of available animations and there is your rearrangement situation. Which makes it two collapsible panels and I'm concerned about both being closed. Would be awkward.

The described workflow with Apply/Cancel is true for dialogs when you finalize the configuration. But I admit instead of Add it could be Insert placed at the end of this section and with all controls enabled. Workflow would be to set-up the animation and insert then. The Insert button could become, or rather accomplished by, another button to Modify the selected animation. Also not perfect. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151377 --- Comment #6 from Telesto --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #4) > Added a splitter between the list of used and available animations to > resolve bug 145028 and bug 145037. You can show more than 8 items. => WFM The splitter does technically work, but it still feels like the "wrong" (workflow/esthetical) solution for the issue .. So this keeps nagging/hunting me. * If you drag the insert animation panel down to the bottom, you can't pick it up anymore, if the sidebar being on minimum size (because of a horizontal scrollbar at the bottom). But the horizontal scrollbar shouldn't be present at the first place, I guess (larger minimum size of the sidebar) so maybe unrelated to this * You don't need the 'Insert Effects' part of the sidebar at all, if you you want to rearrange the inserted effects... You don't want to reduce the size of the insert animation, you actually want to hide that part of the panel temporally. * Dragging it down to the bottom, and restoring it by dragging it up again, is bit of unusual. At some points some elements of the panel disappear. I actually would have expected a minimum size. It shouldn't be possible to hide controls out of sight this way. * Sliding the panel out of sight, seems to be slightly inconsistent with the approach at the properties deck of the sidebar (collapse/expand). * It pretty hidden feature. I admit that position the up/down buttons & delete button for sorting effects being a problem when considering collapsible regions. Obviously also fixable (here we go again with scope extension). Sorting animations should - in my opinion - be have the same workflow/design as the slide sorter bar. Consistent design for same type of actions. And well comfort. The slide sorter bar being the superior design, in my view. The Slide sorter bar has no visual buttons for arranging or adding slides. Arranging or adding or deleting slides is done by Drag & Drop (and/or) Keyboard Control (and/or) Context Menu And well - lets face it - the 'Add' button is on weird place anyhow, at least in my workflow. When I insert an animation effect, work the dialog from top to bottom. First setting the category, next the effect, Next start, and duration.. (mouse being at the bottom of the sidebar panel). Now I have the do large mouse movement, to move the add button. I would expect somewhere near the bottom to finish it. Apply/OK buttons are also at the bottom of the dialog, not at the left right corner of dialog window (or the title bar). I always experience it as rather counter-intuitive/ un-logical/ unnatural. The position of the 'add' button is the outcome of a concession. You get to this if you assume those buttons (delete/move up/down) being a necessity. Those buttons do control the effect list (so below the effect list makes sense). Also Add/delete are the opposite of each other (so combined location seems sensible) And well up/down buttons need a place too. The fact that I think I know why current design being as it is, doesn't improve practical usage.. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
