Created attachment 192589 [details] Calc view header The menu item "View headers" in the menu "View" and the option "column/row headers" in the dialog Option - Calc - View does the same work. But they are named different. The menu item in the view menu should also named "column/row headers". The label "header" is used for the header on a page. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Calc 2. Open the menu View 3. The menu item calls "View headers" 4. Open the dialog Options via menu Tools - Options... 5. Got to Calc - View 6. In the section "Window" the option calls "column/row headers" See also attached picture.

Created attachment 192654 [details] Notebookbar The command label (which is the menu entry) was changed in https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/53104/ apparently to fit the item better on the Notebookbar. Possible solutions: a) have a dedicated NotebookbarLabel entry in the command description (don't see this being implemented in the near future) b) change the command back to "Column/Row Header" and accept the longer label in the Notebookbar c) change the UI label to "View Headers" (fixes the ugly upper/lower case issue for Col/*r*ow and distinguishes this command from the "Col/Row highlighting") My vote is c). However, "*View* Gridlines" and "*View* Headers" could be shortened to just the function name using the contextlabel attribute like for uno:ViewHiddenColRow. In this case I would still go with "View Headers" in the options UI meaning there would be a difference. So d) accept the situation, NAB/WF

One problem resolved and another problem occurs. The label "View column/row headers" is longer than "View headers" but it describe what the function make, show or hide the column/row headers, not the header. The label "header" is used for the header on a page. See https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=192747 The option which make the same as the menu item is named "column/row headers". It is confusing for the user if the same function has different labels. See https://bug-attachments.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=192589 On the notbookbar is enough place for the label "View column/row headers". Maybe the word "view" can be removed so the label is shorter.
We discussed the topic in the design meeting. Adding another label type to the command description sounds like a good idea but wouldn't be a quick solution for the inconsistency, IOW "a residual uncanny feeling". Both, renaming to the previous lengthy term as well as changing the dialog label has disadvantages. We should first test with a context label "Col/Row Header" (the full label would be "Show Column/Row Header") whether this is used on the NB and if it becomes too long. Otherwise a tooltip like "Toggle row/column header on/off" for both places might mitigate the confusion. .uno:ViewRowColumnHeaders in officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/UI/CalcCommands.xcu sc/uiconfig/scalc/ui/tpviewpage.ui
