Windows or Linux doesn't matter.

Verified on OOo 3.1.0 m19, OOo 3.2.1 m18, OOo-dev 3.3 m84
Comment 2 denis0 2010-07-02 07:42:28 UTC 
Same problem. Confirm.
Comment 3 bormant 2010-07-02 07:53:43 UTC 
Highlighting icon of Writer's Formatting bar has same behavour.
Comment 4 helenrussian 2010-07-02 09:07:46 UTC 
Confirm with OOo 3.2.1, Linux.

It's a double the Issue 93246?

@helen_russian: thank you for finding the dup!

@bormant: the expected behavior is that the invisible icons are not available to
show. If the screen or window is too small, it IS too small. And I don't know
any software which can wrap toolbars.

Hm, this is another problem and I can not agree with DUPLICATE status.

Borders, Background, Font color and Highlighting ar "two step" icons -- click on icon 
shows another toolbox to clarify action with border type or color.

When one of icons shows on toolbar second action has chance and toolbox of second step 
appears on screen to complete action with border type or color selection.

When one of icons shows after toolbar expansion with click on arrow at right side second 
action HAS NO chance and toolbox of second step DOESN'T APPEAR on screen so user can not 
complete action with border type or color selection.

I.e. icons are available but not functioning when selected from toolbar right side arrow 
menu.

You can see, that i93246 is about totally different problem.
So, reopened.

Ok I get the point now.

The problem is that such functions which call floaters don't call them when they
are included in menus. The same happens when those functions are added to the
Format menu for instance.

@CD: please take over,
