Do not hide speadsheet statusbar by default #3324
Conversation
Status bar is crucial for productivity tool (specially when it comes to office suites and in specific spreadsheets). Context, this is a regression from: - #2059 - fabed16 Even if, and as noted in #2053 (comment), the status bar was still being hidden for safari I think it's best to don't break the spreadsheet experience for every browser. On top of that I think the richdocuments frame suffer some changes and that safari issue might not be present anymore. Signed-off-by: Pedro Pinto Silva <pedro.silva@collabora.com>

The showing of status bar and subsequent revert was done due to the opposite reason: @pedropintosilva Is there a reason not to enable the status bar in all apps by default? Only doing it for spreadsheets seems like an inconsistency to me. |

This was mainly due to designers input to have a more simplified interface with Nextcloud office. cc @jancborchardt |
@thebearon : Juliu's comment is a direct answer to your question |
|
Nevertheless, I wonder if we should revisit that point. I just witness last week an user (German) being lost in Impress (presentations) when trying to zoom in. The user 1. went directly to the bottom right corner with the mouse pointer 2. Move the mouse pointer to the left still at the bottom 3. "There is no zoom option". |
|
I think it makes sense to do some comparison here and pick what most users are used to on competitor (market leading) platforms. Zooming might for example also deserve a more prominent place. Or the status bar needs some revisiting to be less crowded (just from comparing with ms excel) |
My question was about the inconsistency that it is now enabled in one app, but not in the others, while @juliushaertl 's answer was about why it had been disabled in all apps in the first place. My concern here is that the different defaults will lead to confusing UIs to unfamiliar users (like the one you mentioned, looking for the zoom option where the status bar would be, except now it will be there in Calc, but not in the other apps). Nevertheless, I am glad to hear this is being revisited. Should we open a GH issue on it? |
