With the addition of the Hide Slide option, it would have to be an hide/unhide slide option. Hm I have some other suggestions... That's how I use Impress: * For adding, deleting, hiding etc of slides I always use the left panel. I would suggest that those options are only in the left panel in the context menu. * The context menu on the slide itself I mostly use for changing the slide background or other slide properties. I would suggest to bring these options to the first level. So my suggestion for the new slide context menu is this: Paste - separator - Slide Setup Set Background Image - separator - Master Slide Design Display Background from Master Display Objects from Master - separator - Display Ruler ... Comparing with PowerPoint and WPS, they have a similiar context menu. I like Jay's new setup proposal. status NEW Created attachment 107924 [details]
context menus from other presentation apps
Here are all the major presentation apps from various office suites and the context menu from on the slide, context menu in the slide pane on a slide, and context menu in the slide pane not on a slide.
WordPerfect's presentation app doesnt have a slide pane, so the context menus are from its slide sorter tab.
Well all the office suite presentation apps dont have it in the slide context menu except ibm symphony. All the youtube videos i saw for impress for LO and AOO all add a slide from the side pane, toolbar button and insert menu. Right-click in Pane http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR7yVoPn2bs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieTmucuATV8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuKFuueR_S4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Az6ZimJH8s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPiG9A1OztE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMaQdtjhxQM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afnYOdMQ6K4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oROiNcheGjE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWR4C0YphqU Toolbar Button http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfvtAzflroM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kc3lLjItTG4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hrg7ZsqJWH0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFKj9Nl4w6I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3MgBBNw5-k Menu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nc2f7fQ99-U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiQTXrghY5M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs0vigCxPvE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKH2rPrM4n4 I think we can leave those entries exclusively in the submenu and move everything else out to the main context menu for the time being and then delete the submenu with stats from kendy. What you think samuel? Put in patches for 4.4 and 4.5 to begin reworking the submenu. 4.4 - https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/13615/ 4.5 - https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/13599/ Stats from the recent impress survey showed that 13% of participants used the slide context menu to add a new slide, so i've left those in the submenu, but have moved them to the top. I've moved 'set slide background' and 'slide setup' to the main context menu and removed 'slide layout' until it can be created as a submenu. Yousuf Philips committed a patch related to this issue.
