[Libreoffice-ux-advise] [Bug 148967] Include a HUD inside the Standard toolbar as text field (today you can add it only as button)
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148967 Heiko Tietze changed: What|Removed |Added CC|libreoffice-ux-advise@lists |heiko.tietze@documentfounda |.freedesktop.org|tion.org Keywords|needsUXEval | Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |WONTFIX --- Comment #40 from Heiko Tietze --- The topic was on the agenda of the design meeting. Tagged the opinions of individuals here with plus/minus and we have a tie. Having means to directly add the search term would be a great benefit (although I remember Tomaz commenting somewhere else that this modification requires some effort). But it comes on cost of space and we either accept the field to be hidden on small screens or remove many commands to make space. Placing the search field into the header bar as done by MSO is not possible. So we better create a dedicated search tab at the sidebar where a) commands are listed in respect to the position at the main menu (as of today), b) the commands are shown associated with the term whether in the label or the tooltip, and c) the search returns occurences in the document where the word is being used (the quick search function). This will effectively take the quick find into the sidebar. In request in this ticket, asking for a search field in the Standard toolbar, the recommendation is to close WF. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148967 --- Comment #39 from Mike Kaganski --- (In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #38) AFAICT the OP opened a bug report *about that*, asking to have a *text field* tor the HUD instead of the button *that is only possible now* (mentioned in the bug report title since comment 11); and then you recommend the OP to file a bug report about that? If you imply that *originally* the bug was worded in a different way, that's what bug tracker is: people with different ideas and different understanding file what they want, and then the discussion transforms it into a reasonable shape, which is now exactly "about it". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148967 --- Comment #37 from Mike Kaganski --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #35) Note that such a decision should at least depend on the availability on mnemonics (keyboard access) working with such a UI; e.g., when a menu is used (which is active with toolbar UI), you may use F10 (Alt) to access menu without mouse. Competition had never offered a UI without keyboard access to its commands. Also note that keyboard shortcuts (Customization) is unrelated here: what is required is keyboard-based navigation through the visible UI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So sure, the Find toolbar might be pressed into service for feeding the dialog. But then for simplicity we'd suppressed the 'Navigate by' listbox on the Find toolbar, searching text values by default, yet keeping the Find code common for use in the Sidebar Navigator deck.

Regarding this statement: 'Since we want to make the Notebookbar/Tabs the default my take regarding the classic UI is therefore WF.' Is this now actually the direction that TDF intend to take? I think it makes a lot of sense but clearly there is disagreement. Is there a timeline for how long this migration will take?

Hi again Heiko, What I wouldn't like to see is that this is rejected for the 'classic' toolbar with a promise this is implemented in the notebook bar interface and then that doesn't happen. I would like to see it in both and there is a benefit for users of LibreOffice if it is. If the display is below a certain pixel size can it simply not be displayed? Is the interface responsive enough that this could be done? It seems that the current 800-pixel limit is a detriment for serious changes to the classic UI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

It is very strange there is no 1440 or 4k (2160) displays listed. By having the HUD to the right like Pedro showed in his mockup how would that impact 800px display? Looking at that list only 24.5% are less than 800 pixels wide on the desktop. OS versions are cut off, at what point do you say modern applications should be allowed to be 800 or more pixels as a minimum for the UI to be displayed correctly? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148967 --- Comment #13 from Pedro --- Created attachment 180056 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=180056=edit Depicitng the Find toolbar as a potential HUD toolbar. In my opinion having by default the HUD only accessible by a keyboard shortcut effectively hides it away from the people that would benefit from it the most: novice users that don't know the location of all commands. Novice users use primarily the mouse and the UI instead of keyboard shortcuts. Yet the HUD is only accessible by a keyboard shortcut. Thus there is no way a novice user that does not even read the Release Notes of each new version know about this great feature. I know some people are allergic to implement reasonable well-thought UI paradigms if they were first implemented by Microsoft or Apple. But I believe I provided a decent reasoning about why this would be important. As for providing a HUD (or text field) in the Standard Toolbar or a button. I also agree with Roman that the text field is a better idea. And I don't understand what would be the blocker for this. As V Stuart Foote mentioned: this can be done by creating a HUD toolbar that could be enabled by default in the Standard Toolbar. I attached a picture of the Standard Toolbar with a potential HUD toolbar, based on the Find Toolbar in the position. Considering that the HUD toolbar is just a search box, it would occupy even less space as my mockup shows. But a similar box would have to be included in the Tabbed UIs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
