Description: Comments expansion and sidebar expansion naturally cause the page to shake, and this is both uncomfortable and unproductive. The eyes want to stay fixed, and it takes time to reorient the vision I thought if the page could be skewed to the left (so the left gray gap is narrower and the right gray gap is wider) - that would let the page stay motionless Additionally, people might run foreign apps such as calculators or browsers over LibreOffice, and the skewed page would make it more comfortable And this is an optional setting, not forced upon anyone Steps to Reproduce: 1.. 2. 3. Actual Results: . Expected Results: . Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: .
Toggling the sidebar does cause the document canvas to re-size, but it's the expected behavior. There's currently no option to pin a document or align the canvas to a side to prevent the shift.

It seems bug 142869 requests the same for all the applications. Do you agree to close this as a duplicate of it?

If they are talking about moving the page to the left or right while it fits in the screen and there are gaps beyond the borders, then yes. It's the same I want Though I might have a different vision of how it should be implemented in terms of UI I'd like there to be arrowed buttons that move the page
