Description V Stuart Foote 2024-05-10 12:15:12 UTC 
Testing the newly implemented for bug 99528, sw Character style, and Frame style, and Page style panels the on-mouseover trigger of the stack of buttons is uncomfortable.

Dragging mouse pointer down the vertical bar of tabs, the tab does not activate until the pointer "tip" reaches the bottom edge of the tab.

Could be os/DE and the pointer style in Windows. Cursor movement between tabs is not an issue, just the on-mouseover pointer position.

Depends heavily on the OS/DE. With kf5 I get a line above the list item aka tab (bright on dark theme) and one below (much darker). Looks quite ugly anyway.

Only solution I can think of is to add images so the entry becomes larger. And to add proper highlighting on hover too.

Keeping average importance on this ticket.
