Incidentally I thought about this control this morning (we looked at it at a NL_LibreOffice meeting yesterday). I like the current improvement and think it can be extended, so that in the side bar you can chose (at least): - show (thus edit) properties of style or text as displayed. and (maybe): - allow choosing paragraph or character styles (or all styles) with the little icons, as in the styles and formatting panel.. and when we are that far ... also choose between style properties and style list... Of course then we need more vertical space (extra controls above the styles drop down, and a separator below + an indicator showing: edit style properties / edit text (direct) formatting or somesuch. Then the whole panel could maybe renamed from "- Properties" to "- Formatting", the upper sub panel "- Styles" and the next one (below a new 'separator' "- Properties". This would improve working with styles. You see immediately what you're changing. (Additional notes - the only reason I have a toolbar active, is that I can see/use the "Apply style" list. - would be great if that control in side bar could (eventually) also be accessed with Ctrl+F11. ) Ideas? Cheers - Cor NB Thanks for asking Bastián, was on my mind already a long time that I wanted to work on clearer ideas for this subject. Now thanks to the meeting yesterday and your question it just happened :) PS I know there is an issue for this. But I'm a sort of finishing stuff before a week holiday. So leave the idea here.) -- Cor Nouws GPD key ID: 0xB13480A6 - 591A 30A7 36A0 CE3C 3D28 A038 E49D 7365 B134 80A6 - vrijwilliger http://nl.libreoffice.org - volunteer http://www.libreoffice.org - The Document Foundation Membership Committee Member -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: design+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/design/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
