Design/UI Elements

UI Elements proposals and evaluation
The LibreOffice User Interface consists of hundreds of single UI elements allowing to reach all the mighty features of this office suite.

The present UI is based on design created about 20 years ago and many new ideas have been developed in the meantime.

This page is dedicated to single UI elements (or groups of them), we want to discuss them, find previous implementations (and refusals to implement them) in other software, describe advantages and disadvantages and finally prioritize and present them to the developers asking for implementation.

Full mockups should not be included in this table, as we should discuss the single features of the UI first. You can link to such mockups from the elements you describe, but please stay with the elements, not the mockups here on the page.
