            Bug ID: 131821
           Summary: UI: Placeholder bar for context dependent toolbar
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.4.7.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: telesto at surfxs.nl

Description:
Placeholder bar for context dependent toolbar

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Draw Impress
2. Insert -> Table. Click inside and outside the table. Notice the dialogs are
arranged for the context dependent table toolbar 

Actual Results:
Continue change of the size of the sidebar/ other toolbars depending on the
fact if the toolbar is open or not. 

I find the context dependent toolbar annoying since ever.. Everything shift
then context dependent toolbar appears or disappears. Making things immensely
restless. Compare Tool Tabbed toolbar with the Standard view when editing
tables 

Expected Results:
The easiest fix would be the ability to enable a placeholder bar at the bottom
of the screen where the context dependent can appear. This would mitigate the
flip-flopping. Maybe make it optional in View -> Toolbar. Some people might
prefer the extra working space (Netbooks) and can live with the flip-flopping.
(However I would think Netbook should use the Tabbed toolbar)




Reproducible: Always
