Added toolbar with icons for action

I'm too lazy and it's too hard for me to open every time sub-menu like Format -> Code Highlighter 2 -> Some_action

I suggest to add into the extension a toolbar with the same actions as in that sub-menu. It can be done in addition to sub-menu or instead, as you will decide.

Please allow buttons to be available for different User Interface (UI) layouts changed with Menu Bar → View → User Interface…

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestions. At first the extension was intended without toolbar, to keep the user interface as clean as possible. I know it's possible to hide a toolbar while unused, but I was thinking that two shortcuts for the most common commands (highlight with and without dialog) would be a better choice. Designing toolbar also means designing icons, which I'm not really good for. If shorcuts are not a solution and you have some skills in creating icons ( ;-) ), I'll take time to add a toolbar.

PS. I will be in holidays from next thursday for two week.

  1. What are the names of the required icons?

  2. Can free icons be used? (a) https://icons8.com/icons/ (b) https://www.flaticon.com/ (c) https://www.iconarchive.com/ (d) https://www.iconfinder.com/search?price=free

  3. Update (a) https://icons8.com/icons/set/update (b) https://www.flaticon.com/search?word=Update

  4. Highlight (a) https://icons8.com/icons/set/highlight (b) https://www.flaticon.com/search?word=Highlight

Thank you

Ovari, all variants of the Notebook UI in LibreOffice can not be changed by extensions, IMHO

I know one great icon designer and can ask him to draw something for this extension
