--- Comment #24 from Yousuf (Jay) Philips <philip...@hotmail.com> --- (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #22) > Check out the examples you put into the whitepaper.

Yes calligra, visio 2007, yEd and lucidchart have accordians with contractible sections, but none have them always open, which is what you were proposing in comment 19. Inkscape, dia, and visio 2010 use the folder/file approach. (In reply to Heiko Tietze from comment #23) > Susobhan's idea is to add a tab to the sidebar which holds the basic shapes > only.

The main benefit that this sidebar deck is intended to have would be to contain non-basic shapes that arent in the drawing toolbar for use in Draw, so that Draw can be more useful. Having the basic shapes as a separate content panel in the deck would make useful for those who dont want to use the drawing toolbar in modules where shapes arent a primary part of the functionality (i.e. writer, excel). Even with basic shapes in the deck, that wouldnt eliminate the reason to have them in the Insert > Shape menu. We maybe misunderstand each other when it comes to the design because we might be talking about different content panels of the deck. My approach to the design of the deck is the programmably viable style with a 'default' content panel of basic shapes which would be scrollable to fit all the shapes (similar to wps's shapes sidebar) and a folder/file design for the 'more' content panel, with or without a search capability. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
