Tickets/Topics

  * Impress: Table design icon without function
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151185
    + issue will be obsolete if bug 101802 is done (consolidating
      table style across modules) (Rafael)
    + no alternative to access table styles if sidebar is not open (Timur)
    + sidebar does not toggle and table style has no own deck, which
      is a requirement to make this function work (Maxim)
    + make the command list TS management functions (Heiko) wont work
      for all modules as it was implemented for sd/ only (Maxim)
    => hide the command at the toolbar, keep it at the notebookbar since
      this usually runs with closed sidebar; create ticket for extra deck,
      if not exist

  * Can't change table row height without selecting the row
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=151337
    + no option to enter a precise value at all
    + would expect to get it via spacing before/after and minimum
      height but this doesn't work at all; and spacing between
      only adds on top (Heiko)
    + not really needed in the sd/ context
    => keep ticket with low priority

  * Consider removing Attribute Blinking in Find and Replace dialog
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143886
    + UI access needed for legacy documents (Eike)
    + remove and show an infobar top turn it off (Mike)
    => reopen and follow Mike's idea

  * CHAPTER NUMBERING DIALOG: Add additional option in numbering sublevels
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152256
    + use fields and/or manual input for the extra mile (Heiko)
    + introduce a checkbox "[ ] Apply numbers of this level to shown
      sublevels" (Mike, Dieter)
    => do it

  * Tools>Options>LibreOffice Writer>Table dialog, "Variable" setting
    does not work when resizing cells with keyboard shortcut
    + https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139977
    + cannot follow the issue, options work well (Heiko)
    + Label is not clear, better "Behavior of row/columns via shortcut
      (alt+<left/right>)"
    + Documentation needs improvement too
    => do it
