Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 20053
Q-PCD Provide a standard toolbar behavior
Last modified: 2004-03-25 09:55:52 UTC
Product Requirement: Toolbars should behave more intuitive and care about standards in toolbar design. Product Concept: The current toolbar concept will be reworked from scratch. We get rid of the limitation that a toolbar occupies the entire width of the application window. Instead toolbars are just as long as necessary to keep their controls. The unused space in the toolbar area can be used to hold other toolbars. Toolbars can be rearranged by dragndrop. If the context of the application changes new toolbars might show up. We provide a smart handling of toolbars to close them automatically if they are no longer needed. We have to consider the tradeoff between a consistent UI and toolbars that come and go as they like. Q offers an easy to approach mode to customize the toolbar displays, e.g. small icons, large icons, large icons with text labels. The order of the toolbar controls can be rearranged by using drag & drop. Functional Specification: http://specs.openoffice.org/ui_in_general/toolbars/openoffice_org_toolbar_spec.sxw
Accepted.
Source Users Category Toolbars / Icons Customer Need/Problem The arrow key on the right that toggles additional icons on/off is not understood as performing this function. Also it is not often seen by users. Also, a different way to bring additional icons into view may be more intuitive. Eng Effort HI Eng Owner Christian Jansen
