Description Chris Sherlock 2019-02-15 01:55:22 UTC
Description:
There are buttons in the View and Tools tabs that are misaligned and have no gap between other buttons, it doesn't quite look right. 

Those buttons are:

View tab: the Rulers and Menubar buttons - they are too high, and there is no space between the buttons
Tools tab: Form control wizard button - again, too high and no gap between that and other buttons

Steps to Reproduce:
Enable Notetabbar

Actual Results:
UI looks wonky.

Expected Results:
The UI should look less wonky.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I am running this on Windows 7.

Thank you for reporting the bug. I can see the buttons have no space between each other, whereas the height is equal between all buttons.

There is space between buttons, but vertical align is bad.
Setting to new.

I could also mention the "Clone" button next to the font family combobox, the "Merge and center cells" button next to the various rows/columns buttons in Calc's home tab, the "Open" button next to "Recent Documents" and "Open Remote", the "Save" button next to "Save As…" and "Save Remote", etc.

It's a systemic, generalized problem with layout in the LibreOffice notebookbars, so I don't think listing every occurrence of individual buttons where the problem occurs is necessary; rather, the toolbar's architecture should make it so that there is a minimum amount of spacing (3px?) enforced between columns/sections/widgets, and that the widgets' heights expand to fill the columns in a consistent way with other buttons or widgets (ex: Combobox/Menubutton and ComboboxEntry widgets).

From what I can see with version 24.2 (and older), the height problem (ex: buttons vs combobox) and spacing problems also affect the "Tabbed Compact" Notebookbar variant and GroupedBar AFAICT, not just the regular "Tabbed" Notebookbar.
