Likewise the other Notebook Bar MUFFIN modes.
Comment 3 andreas_k 2019-07-15 23:22:02 UTC
For now ONLY writer, calc, impress and draw have notebookbar layouts, but it is planned to make the layouts for ALL LibO apps/modules.
Comment 4 Nadie Nada Nunca 2019-10-31 18:39:02 UTC
Confirmed. And this is *in Writer*, Andreas. Opening an .odm file in Writer makes it so the user interface options are unavailable, as well as macro recording. Opening an .odt file enables both.

> Confirmed. And this is *in Writer*
Well, kinda not. It is in sglobal instead of swriter (at least in menu terms).

This also applies to New - XML Form Document, New - HTML Document, and probably the Database forms and reports too.

QA Administrators,
Yes, the bug still exists, but I'd like to clarify the report.

Tested in Linux Mint 22.1; Modul: Writer
Version: 25.2.3.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: bbb074479178df812d175f709636b368952c2ce3
CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 6.8; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: hu-HU (hu_HU.UTF-8); UI: hu-HU
Calc: threaded

-- Open new document
-- View - User Interface - Tabbed
-- Click: menu bar (left-top corner in the screen)
-- File - Send - Create Master Document
-- Save

The bug report actually relates to the display of the main document interface. The main document continues to display with a normal toolbar, despite Tabbed mode being selected for a document.

I am actually not sure if this is an error, as there is no option to select Tabbed mode under the View menu within the Master Document settings. Is it possible that the Master Document was never able to use the Tabbed menu?

Correctly:
The bug report actually relates to the display of the Master Document interface. The Master Document continues to display with a normal toolbar, despite Tabbed mode being selected for a document.
