I use Writer for several different types of tasks: writing documents from scratch, editing/proofing documents from other people, entering data into a form, etc. Each task requires a different set of toolbars, and it can be time-consuming to switch them on and off especially if I have to switch between tasks during the day (keeping them all on all the time isn’t reasonable because they take up too much space and it gets too messy/confusing). Is there a way in which I can save a specific configuration of toolbars to match the document I’m working on, so when I next open it there are only the toolbars I need? Or alternatively, is it possible to configure a set of toolbars to appear as a group, so I can switch between ‘writing mode’, ‘editing mode’ and ‘data entry mode’ much more quickly?
Thanks. For anyone else interested in doing something similar, apparently the short answer currently is no. The manual points to two workarounds using either templates (not viable in my situation, as I have to use the same formatting template to both write documents and edit them) or creating a customised toolbar for each task and swapping between them as needed, which is what I will do.
