[libreoffice-users] toolbars automatic appearance behaviour

2011-10-05 Thread e-letter
Readers,

When opening a document and a particular object becomes visible (e.g.
a table) a floating toolbar appears (e.g. table toolbar).

How to configure LO to stop this behaviour?

Thanks.

Hi :)
I think people try to add that annoying toolbar at the end of one of the 
existing ones or at the end of a custom toolbar so when it appears it's hidden 
off-screen a bit.  Not an elegant work-around!
Regards from
Tom :)

next time the unwanted toolbar appears, just close it (with the x
button on the top right corner). If you ever need the toolbar again,
you can activate it again by using View  Toolbars.

This is already known; this request is to configure LO so that
unwanted toolbars _never_ appear unless they have been requested via
the options in the menu bar. It is an example of unwanted design. The
analogy is with the noscript extension for firefox; if the web page
reader does _not_ want ecmascript code to run, (s)he can configure the
web browser to prevent any ecmascript being activated _by default_ and
code only runs when specifically wanted.

This feature of automatically displaying a table toolbar when a
table becomes visible is an annoyance and provides no benefit,
especially frustrating as there is no function to control this
behaviour; it was expected to find such a function in the menu bar
option 'tools'|'auto correct options'.

Everyone has an opinion, is an Unwanted design for you.
If you want, you can make an extension, or even a code modification, to
change the behavour.
