Bug ID: 92831
Summary: Sidebar interferes with scrollbar.
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: jigglebi...@mailinator.com
The sidebar should be on the left of the window. The rationale for this is that
when a window is maximised, the user can flick their mouse to the right side of
screen and the scroll bar is of infinite size (Fitt's Law). This is how most
scrollbars are on the windows platform. Maximise a window in google chrome,
notepad or word 2013 and you will see that the scrollbar touches the outside
right window.
Libreoffice too has this feature but if the sidebar is enabled on the right
side then it loses the infinitely sized scrollbar.
Having the sidebar appear by default on the left rather than the right side of
the window would be better so a user could flick their mouse to the right in
order to scroll.
