So why have toolbars? Why not have menus for everything?

Do you think, if I thought menus were easier, I would have requested toolbar
buttons?

But I don't need to ask Cor or Sophie. This is a demonstrably ridiculous
assertion. Didn't Tietze just break into a cold sweat when he thought we were
messing with his default toolbar? Forget Cor and Sophie, just ask Heiko Tietze
(or ask Benjamin) what would happen if we were to replace all his toolbars with
menus. "Hey Benjamin, menus are easier! Just ask Core and Sophie!"

Yeah, and that ebook market was booming 25+ years ago...

I just did it and tested it. Works fine.

Be sure and mark it as a duplicate of this one.

Works fine in Windows. Just did it. And no they wouldn't. That subject has been
discussed above.

> ...but that doesnt mean the LO only caters to Benjamin.

That remains to be seen.
