            Bug ID: 144535
           Summary: EDITING: Points and Glue Points toolbars - incorrect
                    view toggling behaviour
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.3.0.0 alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Impress
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ross.johnson at homemail.com.au

Description:
In Impress (Draw is similar), the Gluepoints edit status displayed by Edit >
Glue Points and the "Show Glue Points Funstions" icon on the Draw Bar do not
reflect the status of View > Toolbars > Gluepoints.

The behaviour of the Edit Points toolbar is different but also not what should
be expected.

Steps to Reproduce:
For the Glue Points toolbar:
1.Open Impress for a new document and note that the Edit > Glue Points and Draw
Bar "Show Glue Points Functions" icons are showing as inactive.
2.Select: View > Toolbars > Gluepoints and note that the Glue Points Bar is
displayed but neither of the icons have changed state.
3.Click on either icon and note the Glue Points Bar remains displayed.
4.Deselect: View > Toolbars > Gluepoints
5.Note the Glue Points Bar is now hidden but both icons remain showing as
active.
6.Click on either icon again to deactivate it.
7.Click on either icon again to activate it and note that the Glue Points Bar
is not displayed.
8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 several times noting that the Glue Points Bar is never
displayed.
9.Select: View > Toolbars > Gluepoints and note the Glue Points Bar is
displayed.

For the Edit Points toolbar:
1.Click on the Points icon on the Draw Bar to activate the function and note
the Edit Points toolbar is not displayed.
2.Click on it again to deactivate it.
3.Select: View > Toolbars > Edit Points and note that the Edit Points Bar is
displayed but the icon remains inactive.
4.Click the Points icon to activate it and note the Edit Points Bar remains
displayed.
5.Deselect: View > Toolbars > Edit Points and note that the Edit Points Bar is
gone but the icon in still active.

Actual Results:
As observed in the Steps to Reproduce.

The Points icon on the Draw Bar and the Edit > Points selection, effectively,
have no purpose at all. Availablility of the Edit Points Functions is entirely
determined by the View > Toolbars > Edit Points active status.

The Glue Points Bar and the Edit > Glue Points and "Show Glue Points Functions"
icons are not synchronized.

Expected Results:
The Glue Points view status and the edit icons status should be in sync. 

Similarly for the Edit Points functionality.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
It's not clear why there are both the View > Toolbars  AND the Edit menu
entries when only one appears to be needed. The View entries could be removed
altogether, provided the Edit Points Bar is displayed when Edit > Points or its
Draw Bar icon are selected.
