Bug ID: 168994
Summary: [META] Contextual tabs
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Keywords: needsUXEval
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: LibreOffice

One of the important features of a ribbon-like interface is the use of
_contextual_ ribbon tabs, which appear when focusing or selecting various
entities. Microsoft Office makes extensive use of these, for anything from
shapes through tables to charts.
Unlike with the menus system, where (basically) all functionality has to be
laid out in a single static hierarchy, this would reduce the pressure on us to
fit all commands in the always-visible tabs, on the one hand, but not lose
visibility of any commands, when they're usable, on the other. And the reduced
pressure to fit everything in should also allow us to increase the sizes and
perhaps the spacing of existing commands on tabs, etc.
I'm marking this as meta bug from the get-go, because it makes sense to request
individual contextual tabs in separate dependent bugs.
Note: This bug is _not_ about the "contextual groups" UI mode.
