</div>The "Presentation" toolbar currently has it, but hidden - when you click<br>
on the arrow next to the "Slide" (it should be called "New Slide", I<br>
guess), it is at the bottom of the control that appears. Do you suggest<br>
to remove it from there, and add a button for that directly on the<br>
toolbar instead?<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Yes.</div><div>If you feel like it would waste too much space, you could hide "Slide design" by default, as it's not very useful in its current state.</div>

</div>Possible, of course, just it would shift the "Drawing" toolbar to the<br>
right, and that might hide some items on smaller resolutions. Could you<br>
please double-check if we really want that?<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>First I asked on our G+ page [1].</div><div>Then I took another look at it. Here's my take:</div><div>1) We should hide the Gallery and the Fontwork gallery by default, as they're outdated, promote bad habits, result in bad quality, and are hard to use.</div>
<div>2) "Rotate", "Position and Size", "Alignment", "Arrange", and "Interaction" are on the Drawing toolbar, but they have little to do with drawing and apply to a whole range of objects, not just drawings. I would suggest to put them in a separate toolbar. I would place it to the right of the toolbar below the Standard toolbar, as it also contains commands related to the selected object (ux-natural-mapping).</div>
<div><br></div><div>These changes should improve usability in general as well as make room for the Slide toolbar below the Slide pane.</div>
