In Writer and Draw, where most of my documents tend to be "portrait", the sidebar is using mostly unused screen space. Your objection makes more sense in Impress and Calc, where documents are not inherently "portrait".<br /><br />Your objection of the sidebars hiding the use of styles is spot on, however. I believe that sidebars could actually help convey the notion of styles as predefined sets of settings. <br /><br />Prominently display the styles choice box at the very top op the sidebar. Choosing a style there visibly changes all settings in the sidebar.SvdAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911976699922928862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2639713346395718824.post-31905155954990945402013-09-03T14:09:40.845-07:002013-09-03T14:09:40.845-07:00I'd suggest that sidebar should best be used f...I'd suggest that sidebar should best be used for Find & Replace, possibly extended to include the extension Alternative dialog Find & Replace for Writer.shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01281548627402448655noreply@blogger.com
