Allow users to undock single decks from the sidebar. This would allow users to have multiple sidebar decks visible at the same time (as it was possible before with the floating windows). Once this is implemented, we can remove all remaining floating windows which have a deck in the sidebar (Navigator e.g.). Symphony had this feature: http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/lswiki.nsf/dx/New_Sidebar_in_Symphony_3_beta_3 Symphony source code is available here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ooo/symphony/trunk/ (Not sure that's helpful since that sidebar implementation is quite different than ours)
This is going to be some work I'd bet, but this is needed to further enhance Sidebar function.
I can only "vote" for that bug ;) Just tested 4.4 beta 1, and was very frustrated by not being able to pin the "format templates" ("Formatvorlagen" in German) pane/deck/window (whatever you want call it) ALONE to the right side of the window, as it was possible until 4.3.x. If I use the sidebar to view the "format templates" (or style sheets?), then close the document and reopen, the sidebar again contains the "properties" pane, not the "format templates". I use the "format templates" pane very often, and don't want to activate it every time again, I open a new document :/ Interestingly, the navigator pane still cane be pinned to the left side WITHOUT the sidebar stuff around, bit the same doesn't apply to the "format templates" (F11). For me -> regression compared to 4.3.x.
Samuel: I doubt we can use code from Symphony; if we want to implement this, we have to do it our own way :-) - but would be great if you can spend some time on that...
