Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 376
Show Draw Functions doesn't always
Last modified: 2003-12-06 14:52:34 UTC
I created a blank document, and clicked Show Draw Functions to display the menu tool bar. However the tool bar subsequently went away (perhaps when task switching with alt-tab?) and after that deprressing Show Draw Functions did not display the toolbar. The only method I found to restore it was to close the openoffice window, and reopen the file. this worked until the menu vanished again!
I don't understand your problem. Clicking in a Text hides the draw function OBJECT BAR (the one on top of the horizontal ruler), because its display is context sensitive. When you select a draw object in your text, it comes back. If you are talking about the draw function TOOLBOX (the one popping up on the left hand side after holding the icon for a short time): This one needs to be "ripped out" to stay visible. To do so, just grab it at its top and pull it to the desired position. Then it gets a name header and an icon to close it.
As mentioned on the qa dev list on March 5th I will close all resolved <wontfix/duplicate/worksforme/invalid> issues. Please see this posting for details. First step in IssueZilla is unfortunately to set them to verified.
