Bug ID: 163431 Summary: "find toolbar" should fade out, like "hide intelligently" Product: LibreOffice Version: 24.8.0.0 alpha0+ Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: medium Component: Writer Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: j...@cspv.hu hi, Searching for a string in a document is a quickie. You'll do it anytime. the search results are displayed in "monkey safe" mode, a huge red circle with an X in it indicates to the amused user that the "search string is not found" in the document. And if it is found, a blue background info block displays "reached the end of the document"... And once you have searched for something, this display will stay. Why? Why doesn't it go away? :) Just try: CTRL+F "thing" You'll get your results. But then on, from that moment you have hit enter to execute the search, the "find toolbar" will stay there with its messages. 3 hours later you'll still see the huge red cross (red circle with an X in it, and the blue area message, with an "info" icon in it. This is totally not necessary. How about hiding the "find toolbar" after a search has been carried out? Give it a minute or two. You can even add another message: now the find toolbar redraws, it will be back anytime you do a search. It could have a very intelligent behavior without giving a lot of work for the devs and increasing the level of complexity of this part of the application. I think this could be a great enhancement. - - - thank you for developing Libreoffice and Writer - - - -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
