            Bug ID: 141069
           Summary: Very annoying - click empty space to the right of the
                    Calc tab bar and get a popup(!?)
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

I hit is this issue all the time.  I'm trying to select the Calc window and
raise it to the top.  I see the bottom of the Calc window visible below a pile
of other windows.  So I click on some empty space at the bottom of the Calc
window, to the right of the tab bar, and it raises the Calc window to the top
(yay!), but it also opens up a new popup ("Insert Sheet") which I then have to
Cancel to proceed with my work (boo!).  This happens to me several times a
session, so it's more annoying than a once-a-session annoyance.

Also, if I really wanted to activate this functionality, how am I supposed to
know that clicking on empty space to the right of the tab bar will do this?

Also, it's only the specific empty space to the right of the tab bar where this
happens.  The adjoining empty space to the right of the Find box does *not*
have this misfeature.  This kind of behavior is perhaps more appropriate for a
Zork interactive adventure game than a spreadsheet?  :-)

I think it would be better to just create a dedicated button for this
functionality than have the user click on some "random" empty space.
