[tdf-discuss] Re: table tool bar keep open
Le 19/02/2011 11:33, RGB ES a écrit : AFAIK, it's a feature. If you want the table toolbar to not disturb your work space, when it just drag it and anchor it below the text area: I always put there all the contextual toolbars. Another option is to close forever that toolbar (unchecking it when it appears) and create a custom one (Tools Customize Toolbars tab) with the buttons you need: custom toolbars are not contextual. Regards Ricardo Thanks for the suggestions, Ricardo (also to Irmhild and Cor). I had never anchored the toolbar below the text area before, but there it does not bother the text even when the bar disappears. I'll use that as my workaround. By the way, hard to believe that this is a feature. Were that the case, in my opinion, it would appear as an option to have a given toolbar be permanent or just appear when the curser was in a certain place.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Setup Advice
Thanks very much Barbara. Glad to see someone has beaten me to it.

You could always disable the Quickstarter in OOo (Tools Options LibreOffice Memory uncheck the Enable the systray QS option, and enable it in LibO (via exactly the same route). Personally, I like the QS option and if that is set to load at boot up (or login) then the basic libraries are already pre-loaded and ready to open quickly. And yes, I can confirm Barbara's observation that OOo and LibO do coexist peacefully. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

Well, if it would be an option, than we could ship a thousand more options for the rest of the LibreOffice behavior :-) But of course, sometimes this kind of behavior can be annoying. Since some of you asked - here is the toolbar specification: http://specs.openoffice.org/ui_in_general/toolbars/openoffice_org_toolbar_spec.odt Most probably, section 6.3 Context Sensitive Toolbars will be interesting for you. Cheers, Christoph PS: I don't say that it behaves correctly, it's just about providing the requested information :-) -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@documentfoundation.org Archive: http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/discuss/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
