Reassigned to ES. Reassigned . cd->filkin: I am sorry but you cannot configure toolbars for a special "context" (e.g. table mode, picture mode). That's currently not possible, therefore you suggest a "request for enhancement" and not report an issue. This "problem" is not specific for a certain application module but depends on the framework implementation. cd->fl: May be you can think about a special configuration mode where people can configure the UI for different contexts. > you cannot configure toolbars for a special "context" You can't? Then why does the toolbars appear and dissappear when I turn them all off? - is it a request for en enhancement when their're malfunctioning? > you suggest a "request for enhancement" No I don't want the modes - I thought they were already in there. What I'm trying to report is that a toolbar re-appear even though it's turned off. Isn't that a defect? > Maybe you can think about a special configuration mode > where people can configure the UI for different contexts. No thanks :) I thought that what was I was seeing in the current confusing and unpredictable behavoir. I simply hope you will fix this defect that makes it impossible to hide toolbars permanently. It worked in the old versions and now it's been changed to - for some users - the worse - with no option to turn this new behvaiour off and make toolbars permanently hidden. Cheers - David *** Issue 90750 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Rewrote summary cd->filkin: Now I am confused. In your first description you complain that the "Formatting Toolbar" disappears. As I described before, we have a context sensitive user interface. A toolbar which is context sensitive (e.g. the "Formatting Toolbar") and the current context doesn't contain the functions for the "Formatting Toolbar", the "Formatting Toolbar" will be hidden. There is only a function available "via View - Toolbars" to hide a context sensitive toolbar permantently. You cannot "define" that a toolbar loses its context sensitiveness. If you are sure that you cannot hide a toolbar persistently, then this would be a bug. Please clearly describe your current problem. Is it so difficult to give us the possibility to toggle Context Sensitivity on and off? Put a checkbox somewhere! This is an annoying smart feature at least to some of the users if not to majority. Whoever you are that is in charge of this issue please listen to the users and not to your ego! On OpenOffice 3.0 beta it seems this has been fixed. When I click on a picture and turn off all toolbars they stay hidden next time I click a pitcure. Even after I've quit. |
