[Issue 125497] New: An ability to hide the zoom slider
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=125497
Issue ID: 125497
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: An ability to hide the zoom slider
Product: General
Version: 4.1.0
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: ui
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: shion@openmailbox.org
It would be great, if there was some way to hide the zoom slider.
I encountered the same problem with the zoom slider as the authors of these
issues:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=116700
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=116958
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=113828
This problem is likely to happen, if you to scroll to the right often using the
horizontal bar and work fast. The unexpected zoom changes are very annoying...
While adding an ability to hide the zoom slider would not solve the core
problem, it may be a feasible workaround for these, who rarely use zoom. Also,
one can access zoom function using CRTL + mouse wheel and a button (or menu).

This request falls into "Allow to customize the status bar" (as is not a dup of
issue 116700), feature available in OOo 1, but not implemented since OOo 2;
there is a bug report, but I can't find it right now.

As workaround you can disable the whole statusbar.

Michael, you can hide the zoom slider only. Copy the file "status.xml" from
<installation path>/share/config/soffice.cfg/modules/swriter/statusbar to the
corresponding folder in your OpenOffice "user" folder. Open the copied file in
an editor and "comment out" the line, which is responsible for the zoom slider:
...
<statusbar:statusbaritem xlink:href=".uno:Size" statusbar:align="left"
statusbar:autosize="true" statusbar:ownerdraw="true" statusbar:width="129"/>
<statusbar:statusbaritem xlink:href=".uno:ViewLayout" statusbar:align="center"
statusbar:ownerdraw="true" statusbar:width="63"/>
<!--
<statusbar:statusbaritem xlink:href=".uno:ZoomSlider" statusbar:align="center"
statusbar:ownerdraw="true" statusbar:width="130"/>
-->
<statusbar:statusbaritem xlink:href=".uno:Zoom" statusbar:align="center"
statusbar:width="35"/>
</statusbar:statusbar>
If you need help in this, ask in forum or mailing list.

mroe, I tried it already, but I don't see this as a viable workaround:
If I hide the status bar, I lose progress status on calculation & saving as
well as the sum info.
Also, the only related issue now is P5. Are you suggesting that people, who
have a problem with zoom slider's behavior, work without the status bar till
this P5 is fixed? Seeing that the first of the related issues was reported in
2010, it doesn't look like it'll ever be fixed...
Also, I see another reason to implement an ability to hide zoom slider - simply
because we can already hide almost everything, why not slider?
Please consider re-opening this issue, or at least increase Importance of

Thank you very much, Regina, it worked.
In case of Calc, the folder is:
...\share\config\soffice.cfg\modules\scalc\statusbar
The relevant line is:
<statusbar:statusbaritem xlink:href=".uno:ZoomSlider" statusbar:align="center"
statusbar:ownerdraw="true" statusbar:width="140"/>
