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'. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
