Description [REDACTED] 2021-07-12 09:47:44 UTC 
Description:
Help information about "Rotating Objects" at
https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/lo/text/sdraw/guide/rotate_object.html?DbPAR=DRAW

contains the following information:

Select the object you want to rotate. On the Mode toolbar in LibreOffice Draw ...

This information about "Mode toolbar" in incorrect. In a default LibreOffice user profile there is no toolbar named "Mode". The last version having a toolbar "Mode" I could evaluate was version 5.4.7.2.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice Draw (fresh user profile)
2. Go to menu "View -> Toolbars"
3. Check the list of existing Toolbars
4. Compare the list with content of https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/lo/text/sdraw/guide/rotate_object.html?DbPAR=DRAW

Actual Results:
1. Toolbar "Mode" is not on the list of available toolbars
2. Toolbar "Transformations" is on the list of available toolbars
3. Help page mentions non-existent toolbar "Mode"

Expected Results:
Help page mentions existent toolbar "Transformations"


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Correcting myself:

Code:

https://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/help/source/text/sdraw/guide/rotate_object.xhp?r=1479a6ae#46

- <emph>Mode</emph>
+ <emph>Transformations</emph>

Absolutely unsure about the process flow: Please see https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/help/+/118726 as well.

Thank you for fixing this so quickly Uwe!

I reported another outdated reference to the Mode toolbar in  #143319.
