Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 114408
missing commands for toolbars
Last modified: 2013-01-29 21:40:01 UTC
It lacks some commands from the customization of toolbars. For example, the command to 'Keep with next paragraph' is not available. It should appear in the Format category. This command is very useful for a user and exists in MS Word.
TM->CD: please have a look, thanks.
cd->sba: Do you know if this command is just missing in the toolbar commands list or Writer lacks it?
SBA->CD: Yet another "Still not a 100% MS Office clone" issue...? ;-) "Keep with next paragraph" is a checkbox in the dialog Format-Paragraph, on Tab page "Text flow" (as well as on the same tab page in the dialog to edit paragraph styles). Did not find it anywhere in tools-customize, confirming issue. Bu I am not aware that EVERY bit in every dialog deserves an option to use it with one click via a customizable icon. However, it looks like MS Word offers ALL commands they have in tools-customize. Note that "Keep with next paragraph" can be considered a feature for advanced Writer users and the tools-customize stuff is even more for advanced users. So adding this single functionality alone into the tools-customize dialog will never ever bee seen ever by the vast majority of OOo users. I believe that this requires a more general approach ("bring them all in", like Word does) than adding this (or any other one) alone. Put TM on CC.
My comment was not to want a clone of MS Word. I should not talk in my issue. OOo offers many commands, but not all indeed. It is ultimately the purpose of my comment. So I'll rephrase: Why find a command "hiragana" or "katakana" that i not consider it useful, and not find "Keep With Next paragraph"?
