--- Comment #20 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed this topic in the design meeting.

a) some comments here are towards resolving as NAB
The UI should be kept clean; however, at least based on the number of requests
the desire is clear

b) add an option to tools > options > calc > view
This would be a simple solution but likely not usable as the needed font size
in the formula bar depends on cell content. Plus, it inflates the options
dialog further.

c) have some kind of interaction on the control, could be a drop down with a
couple of font sizes or some ctrl+wheel response specifically on the control
This possible solution was not prioritized as it would be hard to figure out.

d) follow the selected cell's font (maybe all attributes not just the size)
Needs some work to make it working reliable (multi-selection) but will always
end up in a jumping UI; was removed for bug 127066

e) follow the zoom factor on the sheet
Not necessarily what users expect; but would be a straight-forward solution,
easy to understand

f) show the content somewhere else (or in a tooltip)
Was not welcome as a good solution.


The question is what issue exactly should be resolved. Make more content
visible in the formula bar (the bar has an expander to show almost a novel) or
make it better readable. Please elaborate the issue.
