Problem description: The GUI for most LibreOffice components (Writer, Spreadsheet, Presentation, Database) is quite anachronistic Steps to reproduce: 1. Open any LO component Current behavior: LibreOffice GUI for its components is too 'old-looking', laking of modern features. Expected behavior: LibreOffice should have more productive and user friendly graphical interfaces. Modern characteristics and features of competitor's software should be used as a guide.
if you are talking about the Microsoft Ribbon consider that many people hate it... I hope LibO will never use such a GUI
