Description thibs 2003-05-12 16:39:42 UTC 
Go in Tools>Configure>Menu tab. 
Scroll down the "Menu entries" list until you find the "F~ormat" menu. This menu
is empty : there is no entry in it. Moreover, there's absolutely no way to add
an entry to this menu. It looks like it is an "entry" (like "About
OpenOffice.org" for example) and not a "menu" (like "Edition" for example). 
Is it a bug or a feature ? I think it's a bug and I do think that it is related
to the issue #9078 that reports that one cannot access the Format menu when in
"Page Preview" mode.

This bug appears at least in 
1.0.1/1.0.3/644m11 on Windows 98
1.0.2 on Linux PPC

This problem affects Writer and Calc but does not affect Draw nor Impress, where
the Format menu is fully customizable.

Reassigned to Hasan.
Comment 2 thibs 2003-05-31 16:16:40 UTC 
I noticed that the menu "Format" is the only one which is not a 
SfxVirtualMenu. Is it normal ?  
Indeed, the SfxVirtualMenu constructor isn't called when I display the 
"Format" menu, whereas it is when I display every other menu.

CD->MMP: We already discussed this problem before. You are responsible for our
new menu structure.
Comment 9 matthias.mueller-prove 2004-02-09 16:52:55 UTC 
the Fomrat menu will no longer be context sensitive, hence it can be customized
in OOo2.
