Content Analysis
Both AOO and LS's current task pane implementations have strengths that should be emulated, and some weakness that presents an opportunities for improvement. Our design direction should seek to build off the strengths of each design, and address known issues as we seek the optimal hybrid solution.
While AOO currently provides the ability to dock and stack task panes, the available content is limited. Each of the core editors (Writer, Calc, and Impress) include navigator content. Wrter and Calc also include clipart gallery content and data sources content. These task panes are evoked from the main toolbar and are rendered by default as modeless dialogs. Impress includes a number of task panes with are docked by default. An accordian list view contains the following task panes: master pages, layouts, table design, custom animation, and slide transition.
LS provides a rich collection of task pane content.
