Kind of like the toggle that F11 provides for the Stylist deck. But that has issues in the sense that the splitwin "Buttons" apply to either Sidebar splitwin framework exposure state--just Tab bar, or to Tab bar and Deck. Also the +[1-9] just Open corresponding SB when focus is on the document canvas or the SB, and don't work while focused to main menu, any toolbar, or a Notebook Bar assemblage. So would provide a keyboard toggle for the splitwin to collapse (but not close) the SB framework. The existing +F5 shortcut actually closes the framework, and applies SB state as recorded to profile for each module on relaunch. Unfortunately there is no available UNO to match the mouse-only splitwin collapse of the SB framework--and don't think extending the +[1-9] slate of shortcuts gives us the right UX. That same UNO could be reused with the other splitwin UI (e.g. calc, writer). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Could making Alt+[1-9] *toggle* the current state of the corresponding deck maybe be a potential solution, i.e. switch to that deck if it's currently not active, and collapse it if it currently is active? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Its workflow and UI behavior is pretty consistent, as is that of the F11 "Stylist". Also, UNO are already available and assigned to open each SB Deck (bug 84502); +[1-9] with 1-4 common (uno:PropertyDeck, uno:StyleListDeck, uno:GalleryDeck, uno:NavigatorDeck) across the modules. IMHO what *would* be useful would be creating an additional UNO action supporting a keyboard toggle of the current 'Hide'/'Show' (vcl/splitwin) thumb/grip button actions for an active Sidebar instance. Currently just available to mouse click on the buttons. While clicking on a Deck's Tab in the Tab bar will toggle the Deck collapsed or open, the "Hide" thumb button fully collapses the Sidebar (exposing a 'Show' thumb button on the opposite SB edge). While the 'Show' button restores the Sidebar, either just Tab bar, or Tab bar and Deck depending on state when hidden.
