[Issue 125989] New: Sidebar without group highlighting
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125989
Issue ID: 125989
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: Sidebar without group highlighting
Product: General
Version: 4.2.0-dev
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ui
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org

Patch
Groups of user interface elements within the sidebar are currently highlighted.
This looks a little bit disturbing. Without group highlighting the sidebar much
smoother and more compliant to current user interface designs.
I supplied a patch attached to this bug report.
The current sidebar is shown in "Screenshot without patch.ipg" attached to this
bug report. With patch applied the result is shown in "Screenshot with
patch.ipg".
I'm able to test on Mac OS X only. The patch has to be retested on Mac OS X,
but it has to be tested on Windows and Linux too.

Why do you think a visual indication of the group is not needed?

Linux screenshots
I tested the patch on Linux (on the AOO410 branch, corresponding to version
4.1.1, since I happened to have that one ready).
Before and after screenshot attached (Linux 64-but, Italian, 4.1.1 left without
the patch, right with the patch).
The new one looks definitely more modern. By the way, welcome Thorsten, and
thank you for your contributions!

Andrea, thank you for being welcome.
There were somme comments about proposed UI change. I noticed only a single
negative answer, but many approvals. I suggest testing on Windows and adding
the patch to trunk now.

The grouping is already visible by the positioning of the different controls.
Looking at other modern applications most of them are designed as smooth as
possible. Removing group highlighting is a proposal for facelifting the user
interface.
In addition to the sidebar there are other user interface elements which are
looking ugly with group highlighting, e.g. toolbars (not fixed with the patch
attached).

I think I like the sidebar highlighting as it already is -- with the group
highlighting. Just my .02.

Agree, cleaner UI without the widget color different that the deck background.
Context of the buttons alone is enough to organize each content panel.
