            Bug ID: 136362
           Summary: Image toolbar in Calc contains an unnecessary blank
                    area and a corresponding menu option with no text
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.0.2 rc
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: stevemfanning.wh at gmail.com

Description:
After a clean install of LibreOffice 7.0.0.2, the Image toolbar is not visible
in Calc. When it is made visible, there is a blank area at the right of the
toolbar which appears to be unnecessary but probably is not a problem. However,
if you right-click somewhere on the toolbar and open the Visible Buttons menu,
you will find a menu option that controls the display of this blank area (on /
off). Unfortunately, a typical user is likely to be very confused by this menu
option because it contains no text at all.

Why is this blank space needed, why is there an option to turn its display on /
off, and why does that option contain no text?

I would recommend that this issue be reviewed by the LibreOffice Design and
User Experience team.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select View > Toolbars > Image. Calc displays the Image toolbar at the right
of the Formatting toolbar.
2. Right-click somewhere in the toolbar and de-select Lock Toolbar Position in
the context menu.
3. Hover the mouse over the left end of the toolbar until the cursor shape
changes shape and then drag the Image toolbar to a new position. The toolbar is
now a floating toolbar, surrounded by a frame.
4. You can view the unnecessary white space at the right end of the toolbar,
below the close (X) icon.
5. Click the down arrow at the right end of the toolbar’s frame and click on
the Visible Buttons option.
6. View the options in the Visible Buttons menu. Towards the bottom, between
the Color and Line options, there is an option with no text on it. What is the
user supposed to do with this?


Actual Results:
See steps to reproduce above

Expected Results:
Would not expect to see a menu option that contains no text at all.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
