This is especially true with the advent of the newer wide screen
monitors. Thee's lots of space on the sides that would give more room
at the top and bottom so that visualization of an entire document
wouldn't make the text so small it can't be seen by my tired old eyes.
And it gets compounded in the browser with the number of software
packages out there that try to add another toolbar to your browser
whether you want it or not.

Hi :)
Just out of curiosity has anyone tried the Apache OpenOffice 4.0 yet?
I really liked the sound of the toolbar down the side so i just gave it a quick
go. I was a tad disappointed to find that toolbar was in addition to the ones
we both already have at the top and mostly was just a duplication of many of
those buttons. However 1st time try-outs of new things seldom go completely
smoothly! lol
I would really like to see both LO and AOO go this route and faster. At the moment
all programs seem intent on making the screen more and more like a letter-box slit
with more and more wasted space at the sides and more and more crammed in at the
top&bottom.
It's becoming tougher and tougher to see a whole document all at the same time.
Regards from
Tom :)

Thanks, Tom. I always disable quickstarter as a matter of course.

Hi :)
I think it's the same conflicts as between any 2 versions of LibreOffice or
any 2 versions of AOO or OOo. Basically avoid having both open at the same
time. That might mean turning off the Quickstarter of both of them.

Are there any known conflicts with having LO 4.0.4 and AOO 4.0 installed on
the same computer? In my never-ending, obsessive (and admittedly futile)
search for computing perfection, I want to try both programs to see which
better meets my techno-needs.
