Solved via bug 80934 - the buttons just toggle now and the menu went to the
right pane.

Context: When I filed this issue in 2015 I was unhappy with the way the
dropdown for Templates was shown. Breaking the connection to the area users
*have to* click for the menu to open is bad UX.

Solution 1: align the dropdown option on the right side.

Solution 2: move filters and manage templates options into the right-side
template view. That would allow to get rid of the dropdown for templates and
maybe that would be more intuitive for users. The UX could be show all
templates by default and then have the component icons at the top. Clicking any
component icon would then only show the matching templates. This would be more
intuitive and require no additional clicks. Manage templates could be a simply
cogwheel icon next to the components.

I don't see how this bug here would be worksfor me in current release.

Once 80934 is implemented the context menus are obsolete. I'm trying to do
both.

This BZ issue got recast to an alignment issue--the OP should have been
obsoleted or the summary adjusted when the alignment issue was corrected (it
is). 

So, go back and look at the Design meeting discussions and mock-ups--tracked in
bug 61914 --as we brought the thumbnail views of the template manager into the
StartCenter and then implemented thumbnails for the MRU history. 

IMHO the original OP is a clear => WF, and in fact we have bug 80934 to do the
same MRU filtering by document module as provided now for Templates.

Only seven years, that's nothing ;-)
In fact it is on my list of interesting patches.

If it was so efficient we wouldn't have this ticket. Point is that you filter
the content not anything on the left pane. Likewise Open and Edit. One starts
with the left MB on the left pane the other via right MB on the actual item.
And thinking a bit ahead some kind of Sort By function needs to be in such a
context menu too. 

While playing with the code I also realized that these buttons never toggle.

Heiko, why pull a seven year old comment back into focus. Including the
Elements on the StartCenter discussion is done. That was not even the issue of
this BZ ticket. 

The split button drop list action of Recent Documents and Templates remains an
efficient framework to filter the thumbnail views that either SC mode exposes. 
The alternatives of placing those filters onto the backing window "content
panel" got tossed.  And the appropriate controls/representation of each
"thumbnail view" have been tweaked over the years/releases.

Recent Documents also has a context menu but here with the only function to
clear. In case of templates you can filter the various modules and run the
manager. So while I can follow your idea to keep the left pane as simple as
possible the interaction is actually some context dependent functionality.

Nevertheless I vote for removing the contextual function at this position and
have it at the right content area.

Confirming that Drop-down box (context menu) for template in Start Center is
not right-justified (as decided in comment 8).  

Maybe EasyHack?

--- Comment #9 from QA Administrators  ---
** Please read this message in its entirety before responding **

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword

Looks like there is agreement on right-aligning the context menu. Removing
