Bug ID: 166464
Summary: Insert AutoText from a Sidebar panel
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]

Hello,
I am requesting an enhancement, or for someone to tell me how to make this
work. Currently, to insert a block of repeatedly used text, I need to go to the
Autotext Dialog box. This is cumbersome for those of us who regularly build
documents from repeatedly used parts (i.e. lawyers, paralegals).
In Word, there is a drop down menu for "Quick Parts" but that is also
cumbersome. My request is for either a floating palette or, preferably, a
Sidebar pane, with the Autotext 'library' listed. That way, my organized blocks
would be immediately accessible. That would speed up my drafting exponentially
(and help me to convince other lawyers to use the software).
Presently, there is a gallery function, but it does not allow me to add text
parts (or even text files).
Thank you.
