Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 8443
Add icons for Detective functions for toolbars
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:01:00 UTC
Could the Detective functions (trace precedents etc.) be added as an option for the standard Spreadsheet Object Bar or available from the Customize Toolbar dialog. I've added them myself using basic and also created a few Excel-like buttons, however, I think it might be usefull to add them for users that might not want to go to this trouble (or might not have the ability).
Created attachment 3210 [details] Example button for Remove all traces
Created attachment 3211 [details] button for Trace dependents
Created attachment 3212 [details] button for Trace precedents
Hi Bettina, one4you
Summary: Add the detective functions (trace precedents etc.) to the standard Spreadsheet Object Bar or make it available in the Customize Toolbar dialog. Hello Niklas, please give approval for this evaluated OO.o 2.0 flagged issue. If you confirm with the target OO.o 2.0, then please keep it on your owner (or the owner of the concerning developer) for implementation. In case you want this issue for 'OOo Later', then please reset the target milestone. If you decline the issue finally, please set the resolution to 'Wontfix' (but do not close). In case of 'OOo Later' or 'Wontfix' please reset it on Bettina's owner. Thank you.

Found the requested feature in OOo 3.0.0 (OOO300m9). The detective functions can be added to customized tool bar via Tools|Customize... However, despite suggestion and contribution of icons from the reporter, there are no icons assigned to the commands by default.
Cofirming.
I would suggest to implement the Trace-Precedents/Dependents as a toggle Feature and Button (similar to the "Show Note" Feature), so the "Remove all traces" Button would be optional.
Created attachment 59571 [details] proposed button for Trace dependents, alternative
Created attachment 59572 [details] button for Trace precedents, alternative
Created attachment 59573 [details] proposed button for remove traces, alternative
Sorry, for the next Set of icons, but I think the first Set was definitively to unclear. My set is intended as a draft / idea (for a pro designer).
