Bug ID: 129093
Summary: Could we implement a command minibuffer a la "search
command" in Microsoft Office or
execute-extended-command in emacs
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: 1463809...@qq.com
Sometime I wanted to use a function, but it could be hard finding this function
through toolbars and menus. It could be with writer, calc or impress. In
Microsoft Office there is the "search command" feature, which is a one line
text input box in the UI, there I could write some keywords, and it gives a
pull-down menu of candidate actions, then by clicking on one of the candidate
actions, I could apply some formatting, insert an object, or open a config
dialog. The feature was reported[1]. It could be nice to have something
analogous in LibreOffice. And there is the execute-extended-command in emacs,
usually bound to M-x, which prompts for a command int the minibuffer, then
executes that command after hitting return. execute-extended-command accepts
exact command names. Many other softwares also have some similar concept.
