            Bug ID: 135501
           Summary: Change the default UI
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.1.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: needsUXEval
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: heiko.tietze@documentfoundation.org
                CC: libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org
        Depends on: 117463
            Blocks: 113209

With the release of 7.0 we got some attention and comments. And a surprisingly
large number of users is not aware of the UI variants and would like to use one
of the Notebookbar variants. Question is:
* Do we want to switch the default from Standard to Tabbed (or any other
option)

Changing the default feels like a regression for many users. So this change
should not be done before we have an option to choose the UI, see bug 117463 (I
disagree with the dialog on first start but welcome advertising and access via
Tip-Of-The-Day.)

Another issue is that we have quite many UI variants and it might confuse
users. Question here
* Do we want to remove some UI variants, and if so which?
