            Bug ID: 129526
           Summary: Orientation Toolbox Between Portrait and Landscape Do
                    The Same Thing
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: riz_17_oke at yahoo.co.id

As discussed in LibreOffice Design's Telegram group, I would like to report
Muhammet Kara's finding to let him fix the bug he have found. :)

So the "Orientation" command in Writer is a toolbox with two options : Portrait
and Landscape. Strangely, these options are not persistent with their
respective naming. They are basically do the same thing, toggling back and fort
against page orientation.

So let me explain the step to reproduce

1. Open a new Writer document
2. Add "Orientation" command to any toolbar (Tools > Customize..., select
Toolbar, search for "Orientation", click right arrow to add to the Target
toolbar or right click at any active toolbar, click Customize Toolbar...,
search for "Orientation", click right arrow to add to the Target toolbar)
3. By default, Writer page is portrait, then try to click "Portrait" option
under Orientation toolbox, and boom! The page become landscape.
4. Go to Page sidebar, in the Orientation drop down option under Format
section, the text showing Portrait (following our choice in step 3: Portrait),
actually the page now is landscape.
5. Now click "Landscape" option under Orientation toolbox, the page actually
become portrait and the text in the Page sidebar become Landscape (following
our choice :"Lanscape)

One can assume user rarely adding "Orientation" command to the toolbar and the
Orientation in the Page sidebar do the job finely. But as Muhammet said, the
sidebar is a mapped implementation of the command so we should fix this strange
Orientation command behavior before the situation get worse.
