Priority: medium
Bug ID: 82707
CC: libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Summary: STATUSBAR: Unify click behaviour
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: All
Reporter: philipz85@hotmail.com
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
In Writer, there are 12 sections in the statusbar:
1) page number
2) word count
3) page style
4) character language
5) edit mode
6) selection style
7) document modify status
8) digital signature
9) insert field
10) page view style (1 page, 2 page, book)
11) zoom slider (zoom out, slider, zoom in)
12) zoom percentage
Of these entries, 8 entries have double click functionality (5 of which only
function with double click), 5 entries have right-click context menus (2 of
which left-click also opens the context menu), and 2 function with the left or
right click (numbers 10 and 11). Below is the list with their click
functionality:
1) page number - dbl click dlg
2) word count - dbl click dlg
3) page style - dbl click dlg, right context menu
4) character language - left/right context menu
5) edit mode - dbl click (overwrite mode), single click (insert mode)
6) selection style - left/right context menu
7) document modify status - dbl click save
8) digital signature - dbl click dlg, right context menu
9) insert field - dbl click dlg
10) page view style - left/right click
11) zoom slider - left/right click
12) zoom percentage - dbl click dlg, right context menu
To fix this setup, i'd like to suggest that one of the following approaches be
used to unify the behaviour.
1) single click context menu, double click dialog/action - with this behaviour,
single left or right click only brings up the context menu, if there is one,
and double click is left for the opening of dialogs and execution of actions
(change edit mode, save document).
2) single click context menu, single click dialog/action - this behaviour has
entries with a context menu open context menus on single left or right click
and open dialogs on double click, while entries that only have double click
dialog/action also function with a single left or right click.
3) left click dialog/action, right click context menu - this behaviour isnt
departing much from how it is presently and only adds that when an entry has a
double click dialog/action, that a single left click also acts like a double
click and context menus only appear with right-click.
