Created attachment 140842 [details] screenshot 1 Instead of the large usually empty space taken by the Findbar '[placeholder for message]' area this area can be adjusted to the length of the displayed message. screenshot 1: Findbar with no message followed by Form Navigation toolbar screenshot 2: Findbar with Find Text search message for wrapped search from the beginning of the document then continued from the end followed by the Form Navigation toolbar screenshot 3: opposite of screenshot 2 screenshot 4: Findbar with Navigate By navigation wrapped message screenshot 5: Writer window not in full screen showing clipped Findbar and Form Navigation toolbar screenshot 6: Findbar Find Text search message shown in overflow toolbar Note these screen shots show changes to what the current messages actually are and include a screen shot showing a Heading navigation with 'Navigation wrapped' message, another option would be 'Navigation has reached .., continued from ...' like those shown for the find text messages when the search wraps.
