This sounds good. This issue is re-assigned to Christian Jansen for further evaluation. Good idea, thank you. Reassigned to Bettina. Reassigned to Bettina. Anything happening on this one ? I still don't know what STD, EXT, ADD, SEL, HYP and * are ! Anything happening on this one ? I still don't know what STD, EXT, ADD, SEL, HYP and * are ! I think this one should be raised to the level of `bug' now. you can (temporarily) activate extended tips (using <crl>+<f1> or the menu), these already show a detailed explanation... Nevertheless setting target milestone, adjusting priority Completed the Summary to "Tooltips for Statusbar would be nice". Any movement on this one. It is still a real pain in the bottom to try and remember what all those little boxes on the bottom status bar are for !! Of course it is <shift>+<F1>, not <ctrl>+<F1>, sorry. Ah yes, but this is not as convenient as hovering the mouseover a box and getting some info on what it does :-) Sorry, no chance to get this done for Q as it does not belong to a keyfeature-area. Good grief ! Does this one hold the record for oustanding issue ! :-) EVERYTHING else has a tool tip. Surely it is about time that these should also get tooltips !!! I still don't know what STD, EXT, ADD, SEL or HYP mean three years after the original post ! The user cannot know to double click these area (affordance and all that). What is worse is that 2 of the empty ones actually have functions (to digitally sign the document and 'Fields'), but how in blue blazes is anyone supposed to know this. Tooltips are in for all elements up to "STD, EXT, ADD" in 1.9.104. The digital signatures and the insert fields sections could actually do with some text in them. At the moment they just look like empty space that does nothing. In my version of 104, the statusbar still doesn't have regular tips, only the extended tips work. *** Issue 87317 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements". *** Issue 122316 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** This simply is a Bug, most Status bar items can not be understood without additional info. The asterisk in Status Bar for "Document has been modified" is not self explaining ... At least for most items Enhanced Tooltips do exist. Not only Calc affected. All OS affected I can't see anybody working on this issue, so back to CONFIRMED |
