Bug ID: 144968
Summary: Tip of the day should be specific to the document type
in use
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.0 all versions
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: bernhard_gabler at web.de
Description:
It is distracting, and not helpful, to open e.g. a Writer document and see a
'Tip of the day' on Impress. Or vice versa.
The 'Tip of the day' would be much more useful if it matched the document type
currently in the foreground window, and on the user's attention.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ensure that 'Tip of the day' is enabled:
Extras -> Options -> LibreOffice -> General -> Help -> show dialogue "Tip of
the day" on startup
2. Close Libreoffice. Open a fresh Openoffice instance or document.
3. 'Tip of the day' is shown.
Actual Results:
The shown "Tip of the day' may or may not match the document type currently
open. In many cases, it does not match. Which is distracting.
Expected Results:
Whenever a Writer document is opened, the "Tip of the day" (if shown) should
only present advice related to Writer.
Whenever a Calc document is opened, the "Tip of the day" (if shown) should only
present advice related to Calc.
Whenever an Impress document is opened, the "Tip of the day" (if shown) should
only present advice related to Impress.
... etc ...
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Version: 7.2.1.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 20(Build:2)
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.14; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb)
Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: de-DE
7.2.1-2
Calc: threaded
The issue exists since "Tip of the day" was introduced. I do not know enough
about LibreOffice's history to put the finger on that version number. I put a
guess in the above mandatory field "Version (earliest affected)", it may be
correct or not.
