Eve wants to (re-)assign shortcuts to functions in order to improve the workflow according his needs. Eve wants to be able to group items by using submenus/menu- or split buttons in order to organize the workflow for his needs. Eve wants to have multiple occurrences of functions in different locations to have easy access to them in more than one use case. Eve wants to be able to create new toolbars to supplement existing functions found in existing toolbars. Eve wants to be able to browse through functions, including the usual behavior of jumping to the first item on key press to find those functions he knows. Eve wants to be able to sort items in order to organize the menu or toolbar for his needs. Eve wants to search for functions (including fuzzy search) by a) the caption of menu item or toolbar button (“Into what toolbars/menus did I add the function xy?”), and b) the tooltip c) the default and the actual shortcut (“What function is usually assigned to shortcut xy?”, “What function do I have assigned with xy?”) d) uno command name Eve wants to save and load her customization to harmonize it between multiple machines, such as desktop and notebook. Nice to have Eve expects to have drag ‘n drop support when adding or sorting items. Eve wants to see the description for items to learn about what it is used for, if the help is installed. Eve wants to be able in the future to customize the mobile editions of Libreoffice. Technical note about search terms Searches all labels in *Commands.xcu Save Remote Sa~ve Remote File...
