Hi I created an extension that adds a submenu, Cell Protection, to the context menu of tables. Feel free to give feedback, and I will try to publish the extension to the LibreOffice Extension Center. Note that at the moment the extension is in English only. For the time being, you can download t

I totally agree with Tanstaafl. What USERS want for all menu's should always be the primary driver of design. A long established design should not be changed cavalierly wither user comment input. +1 Joe Conner, Poulsbo, WA USA On 08/30/2015 10:19 AM, Tanstaafl wrote: I completely and total
