I think calling this defect an enhancement is being overly generous. 

This post has some suggestions for working around this cough 'feature':

This context sensitivity is a nightmare, even worse on a slower computer where
there's a significant delay and text shifting.

If you can't turn it off, it's a killer NOT to use OOo.

I'm using Oo 3.2.0 and it seems this issue still hasn't been resolved. Or I
don't seem to find an option to remove the context-sensitivity. As previously
noted, this is really bad UI design and extremely frustrating, especially to
users used to keyboard shortcuts and who'd rather not clutter their screen with
5 undocked toolbars popping in and out.

Context sensitive toolbar could be a nice feature for some but, can also be very
frustrating as well.  Need option to either globally disable / enable or select
by bar context sensitive ON/OFF.

As a user I find it non-intuitive to use 'View-Toolbars-(toolbar name)' to
permanently close a context-sensitive toolbar.

Using ribbons as in MS-Office could be nice. However the problem could be easily
dealt with by giving the user an obvious way to turn off the context-sensitivity
of a toolbar. Googling help-forums should not be the way to find how to do 
that. 

A simple way to achieve user-friendliness would be to e.g. add a checkbox at the
toolbar tab in the View-Toolbars-Customize dialog, which will determine if the
selected toolbar will be context-sensitive or not. This is still not the best
solution but it's much better than the current situation.

Note that issue 42072 and issue61452 are both related to this one.

I have the same problem. An activated toolbar should stay activated!

There should be an option to turn off context sensitivity in toolbars.  I
frankly can't stand them. 

Every time I click in a table up pops the table toolbar.  I have to close it so
I can navigate the table.  When I have numbering and I want to add numbering to
another paragraph I click on the paragraph and the numbering toolbar goes *off*,
so I have to add numbering from the format menu. 

These sorts of problems occur regularly.  However, I can't recall any situations
where I have found context helpful.

FYI, I find this very frustrating as well. The main problem I have is the
outright disappearance of an entire toolbar row: IMO, it would be better to make
the toolbar row persist across context shifts, even if the toolbar itself must
go away.

For example, let's say I'm editing a writer document in a standard text area and
my toolbar setup looks like this:

| default 1st toolbar row
| default 2nd toolbar row

I then go over a bulleted list. I've set up a seperate third toolbar row to hold
the outline toolbar, so my display flashes and a third toolbar row appears:

| default 1st toolbar row
| default 2nd toolbar row
| 3rd toolbar row with outline toolbar

That flash is a bit disconcerting, but I can live with it. My problem is that
after moving back into a normal area, my toolbar layout once again looks like 
this:

| default 1st toolbar row
| default 2nd toolbar row

I think it would be better if it looked like this instead:

| default 1st toolbar row
| default 2nd toolbar row
| empty toolbar

i.e.: if a new row is created to hold a context-sensitive toolbar, keep it
around even if the toolbar itself disappears. this shouldn't be too difficult to
implement, doesn't involve a radical ui redesign, and would remove the major
source of frustration (the document view jiggling up and down in response to
toolbars appearing/disappearing depending on context)

This is not a special WRITER problem.
