OK, let me be more precise "has improvement potential in its current form" :) > To learn more about the status bar have a look at > http://www.ooowiki.de/StatusLeiste. It is in German and needs an update, > but the text shows, that the status bar is a great tool. This is a great document.... BUT (:-))... the need to write as the first sentence on each item whether it requires a single or a double-click already shows that the status bar items can be improved. The help text on that page is great, eg. BLK is described really nicely. My English within-LO help page say on BLK: "A block of text can be selected." ahh, mmh, ohh,...right. WUT? And the item has no tooltip at all by default. If you need to point me to a 3rd party wiki page in German to explain me how selection modes work mean that *we* (as in LO) didn't do a good job. (which I exaggerate to 'useless') > To get all the nice extended tips, I have added the button "Extended > Tips" (German "Aktive Hilfe") (category "Application") to the symbol > bar, so that I can switch it easily on and off. Ahh, that is a nice one. Unfortunately, I cannot assign an icon to it, so it is displayed as a very wide text. Thanks. Sebastian
