[libreoffice-users] Fixing 5.0 appearance

I have been using LO since it appeared and previously OO, going back to
StarOffice 0.9. My current version is 5.4.3.2 on Xubuntu 14.04,
installed with a PPA. My previous version was whatever the latest was
in the Xubuntu repositories (4.something). I had to install the new
version because the older version would not work with the new
standalone Zotero.

Unfortunately, the new version trashed my preferences for desktop
appearance. After an hour of resetting things I have it mostly back to
the way I want it, but there is one thing that I can't figure out how
to change.

I have always used a custom toolbar for formatting, which I have
floating to the right of the document window. Below it I have the
styles toolbar, also floating. I have no other toolbars visible, unless
I am writing an academic paper where I need Zotero. I like it this way
because it maximizes the height of the document. 

Unfortunately, the styles toolbar is no longer just the styles toolbar.
It has a sidebar, and every time I open a new document it reverts to
properties. I have to select styles and formatting to see my styles. 

How can I view just the styles for all new documents and get rid of the
sidebar?
