A button which I find confusing as such because I know there are '3 options' previously "4 options" possible. And button click mostly opening dialog or enabling/disabling something > Confused Sorry >there is a mix of split button behavior--some split buttons may apply a > default action, others will simply display a list of related actions, a > dialog, or a GUI widget? Yes >This is all core LibreOffice core GUI and UX yes > serve to compress related groups of TB controls onto a single button control indicated by the reveal button. Allowing function while reducing the count of exposed controls. Obviously.. Except seeing not point for an 'split button' if it's only about a single control. If I click the arrow next to the table button or the button itself for table picker in the toolbar.. it does exactly the same.. So the 'reveal' button doesn't reveal anything additional. The 'reveal' button might communicate being a drop down kind of tool. But not being fan of using the same thing for different purposes. FWIW: not saying this 'broken'; and good/bad being (also) matter of taste. Another reason was I used an application today which didn't have the 'split button' but did a drop down anyhow. I didn't find it to disturbing. (see screenshot) Bit obviously 'a detail'. Somewhere in the area between 'optimizing' and 'over optimizing'. Current approach isn't obviously wrong or horrible. I'm having my "green thinking hat" on (Bono). Without me implying to be (exceptional) creative; more a copycat You could argue "ain't broke don't fix".</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
