‘Unfolded/folded’ of Content Panel:
Proposal 1. Grey Title + Grey Panel
Proposal 2. Grey Title + White Panel
Proposal 3. Dark Grey Title + White Panel(Consistent with current AOO definitions)

Overview visual information definition
Including the gradient color, the background color, the border line, the font color, the font size and so on.
Sidebar specific panel design
Two design principles:
1.Icon style of sidebar in AOO 4.0. From UX point of view, to avoid the usability issues, we need to make sure the same icon for the same function in AOO and all the icons have the same visual style. So we need to use AOO icons in sidebar. For the buttons which did not have AOO icons, we will use Symphony icons.
2. UI controls in A00 4.0. Choose the one has more user-friendly interaction behavior. Symphony did lots of improvements based on the original Open Office, so the current behavior in Symphony is more reasonable choice, like Number Bullet, Line Style...
Controls consistent issues proposal
We should pursue the same behavior for the same control in one software, if we choose the Symphony behavior, we should apply it to all areas, such as toolbar, property dialog... At least we need to keep the first level UI elements on controls of sidebar and toolbar consistent for 4.0.
Summarize all 13 controls that will show both on sidebar and toolbar and give the design proposal.
