            Bug ID: 144977
           Summary: Please apply the "tip of the day" to the opened
                    applications [wish]
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.6.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: mailchrisch at gmail.com

Description:
When I open LibreOffice Calc I often get a "tip of the day" for writer and vice
versa.

I would prefer a tip that fits to the application that I opened.


Reasons:
It would improve the usability if the "tip of the day" would apply to the
application, which the user opened.
* Because the user can read a tip that fits to the application,
* Because the user can try the tip if it fits his needs while working. The user
will memorize the tip even better.
* If someone uses Writer only, he/she would not need tips for Calc/Impress etc.
* In my opinion, it is annoying, when LibreOffice shows irrelevant tips.

IMHO this is a usability bug, but I choose "Enhancement" instead of "Normal"
Severity. Please change this if you find it necessary.

(I'm using a translation. Maybe the retranslated phrases like "tip of the day"
could be slightly different.) 

Thanks a lot for all the great work for LibreOffice
Kindest Regards

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make sure you have the option "Show dialog 'tip of the day'" activated in
Extras > Options > LibreOffice > General 
2. Open Calc (or an other application) for the first time of the day
3. The "Tip of the day" is shown. Sometimes it apply to the application you
opened. If necessary, click "next tip" to find some hints that belongs to other
application.

Actual Results:
Sometimes it apply to the application you opened, sometimes not.

Expected Results:
The "tip of the day" should apply to the opened application (writer, calc,
impress etc.). 
When I open Calc directly, tips for Writer or Impress should be skipped until
these apps are opened.


Reproducible: Sometimes


User Profile Reset: No
