--- Comment #10 from Bastián Díaz <diaz.bastian@openmailbox.org> ---
(In reply to Luke from comment #9)
I disagree, the user should be free to resize the sidebar as he want.

No, the user should be free to reduce the sidebar only to a minimum width
defined by the UX designer. If they need more space, they are free to close
the sidebar.  Having a sidebar minimized so much it’s not functional,
provides absolutely no benefit to the user and looks ugly and
unprofessional. The current system is broken. All sidebar panels should have
a minimum width.

I'm all for choice, but there is no point in giving the user the freedom to
break the UI.


I'm user, and I very much agree with this comment.

Currently is a mess width adjustment in the sidebar of the different
applications of LibreOffice. Before getting used to, I lost much time adjusting
to the correct width for viewing the content offered by the different tabs. Now
I turn to use the maximum width which allows the sidebar and hide when
necessary, however, is a problem when you need to use tools in the sidebar
while viewing comments in Writer (in 4: 3 is more difficult).

For me, the ideal solution is to have a minimum and maximum width for all tabs
in the sidebar, in order to ensure see everything offered at a glance. I think
the width of the sidebar, should conform to criteria viewing on 16: 9 (maximum
width) and 4: 3 screens (minimum width).

Currently the properties tab has the expected behavior, delivers security, and
provides a better user experience.


This has been discussed earlier in: Bug 90374 and Bug 91915
