Description Bastián Díaz 2015-07-27 08:33:47 UTC
Testing the new version of LibreOffice 5, it is no longer possible to use the sidebar to the left side of the screen in Impress/Draw, as the slide/pages panel is locked. It is even possible, to completely removing the slide panel, but in my custom setup use the slide panel in the right side of the screen.
Since version 4.4.4.3 a bug that prevented use the sidebar in left side of the screen is fixed, and for some users this configuration is the most convenient and logical for our workflow, and is expected to be used in all LibreOffice applications.

Thank You

This is not correct. The Sidebar can be undocked and then dragged to dock at left upper edge in Draw or Impress, above the Pages pane or Slide pane respective.

However, confirming, that presently (for the 5.0.0rc's) the "Page pane" or "Slide pane" can no longer be dragged off the left edge. 

Unable to locate a control or Expert configuration stanza that would allow the Page/Slide pane to be movable.
