However I have to say that the default layout in impress isn't well fitted common users. It's nice that the drawing stuff is activated by default, but presentations contain regularly text. And yes I love to see the sidebar by default in impress. For me it's a bit confuse, that - writer/calc use standard two line toolbar - impress/draw use standard two line toolbar with sidebar but this is a topic for a separate bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136174 --- Comment #4 from h...@tutanota.com --- A small update: it's super wonderful to see people making an effort in response to my little rant. In fact, Telesto's workaround of using the tabbed user interface solved my problem very satisfactorily. It was especially good for me because not only the font options appeared, but also buttons like font size, text colour and font options (bold, italic). I suppose the spirit of my complaint / enhancement request is that the basic options were too difficult to find, while complex functions took centre stage. For the average user, the basic functions need to be within reach and clearly visible, while they will not need most of the fancy functions. Therefore, might I add this suggestion: instead of defaulting to a difficult user interface and leaving it up to the inexperienced users to look around for basic functions (like font changes) or a basic interface (tabbed), why not turn it around? Make the tabbed interface the default and let the experienced user find the option to expand it to more complicated functionality (the current default look). In my mind this solution makes more sense than keeping this behaviour and trying to fit a font menu somewhere among the buttons (@Heiko Tietze). @Maxim Monastirsky, thank you for your reply, this worked as well, even though I must say that a more intuitive design philosophy would place the most used buttons left, and the less used buttons right. It does not make sense to me that the font menu is all the way to the right and disappears when not working in full screen, but one of the first options is a range of shapes which I rarely use. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
