Icon Effect on toolbar Libe and Filling

LO Draw. on toolbar "Line and Filling" there is an icon "Effects" with which you can open the toolbar "Mode"!

in menu View-Toolbar-Mode opens the same panel.

IMHO, should be renamed "Effects" -> "Mode"
Comment 1 Julien Nabet 2015-02-07 20:21:24 UTC
On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated today, I could reproduce this.

However if both should be named the same way, should it be "Mode" or "Effects"?

code pointer:
opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/officecfg/registry/data/org/openoffice/Office/UI/DrawImpressCommands.xcu#947

ux-team/Jay: any thoughts?
Comment 2 Adolfo Jayme Barrientos 2015-02-07 21:09:00 UTC
“Mode” is a totally non-descriptive name which does not reflect with accuracy the contents of that drop-down. “Effects” may not be the best name, but it’s much better than “Mode”.
Comment 3 Roman Kuznetsov 2015-02-07 21:30:00 UTC
into Russian name panel translated as Operation. That is, will the operation of rotation or reflection operation. Operation in this case - it's a process.
Effect - it is still not a process.
Mode - this is also wrong name, but if you need to do minimal revisions, it is best to replace the effect on the mode.

Thanks, you gave me an idea. Why not name both the toolbar and the tooltip “Transformations”? I think it’s accurate and descriptive.
Comment 5 V Stuart Foote 2015-02-07 22:01:50 UTC
Command is .uno:AdvancedMode but unfortunately was labeled "Effects" when implemented. 

Its default mode displayed and active is the rotate button for action .uno:ToggleObjectRotateMode

The split menu drop down opens the Mode (choosemodebar.xml) toolbar.

Likely the "Effects" label should have been originally set as "Advanced Mode"--representing advanced graphical modes for manipulating the object selected.

IMHO both the dialog title as well as the button label should be changed to "Advanced Modes" 

Not sure how significant an impact on the l10n/i18n efforts.

Yes, "Transformations" might be the better label and title--but shouldn't the .uno command be renamed as well? 

I'd only suggested "Advanced Modes" to match the responsible .uno command.

Rotate is not transformation. This change in position of an object in space.

But all the other instruments - this transformation, I agree...

Rotate, Flip, Transparency and Gradient dont seem to fit well under 'Transformation'. Maybe something with the word 'Alter' might be more suitable like possibly 'Alterations'.

No there isnt any need to rename uno commands that were wrongly named as users never see it anyway. :D

Whatever the name is changed to, it would be useful to have the default button emphasize that name.

You’re establishing an artificial limit on what that word could mean—I meant it as an umbrella term, and I don’t see why rotating or flipping an object isn’t transfiguring it.

And no, sorry, but “Alterations” just sounds horrible.
