Created attachment 103690 [details] Screenshot shows extra long Find Bar Problem description: Useless waste of place with strange view if Find Bar exceeds Window at the right Steps to reproduce: 1. Open new empty Writer Document 2. <control+f> for Find bar 3. Rightclick Find bar ► Customize » At the end of the items list you find an empty entry I can't find out for what that might be I think the problem appeared with "The Navigation buttons have been moved from below the scrollbar to the Find bar" Operating System: Windows 7 Version: 4.3.0.3 rc Last worked in: 4.2.5.2 release
reproducible with LO 4.3.0.4 (Win 8.1) The attached screenshot is only reproducible if the Find Toolbar is (is moved) at the top next to the other toolbars (the toolbar is then shortened and showing the arrows). If this toolbar is at the bottom or on a separate line then you will not see the arrows at the right. But even if the toolbar is at the bottom or separate line it is reproducible in another way by: 1. Right click on the Find Toolbar 2.1.1. Select CUSTOMIZE TOOLBAR 2.1.2. Scroll the TOOLBAR CONTENT to the end or 2.2.1. Go to VISIBLE BUTTONS There you will find an empty entry.
I did observing with Calc & agree it's a strange behavior, don't know if that behavior has particular intention. Confirmed those behavior explained in comment 0 and comment 1 with LO 4.3.1.1 - Ubuntu 12.04 x86
Remove 'NeedAdvice' from whiteboard now that this is marked as NEW.
one could possibly think that this has to do with translation ?? But not that much IMO
Ah, it's used to display "Item not found" or somesuch :)
Indeed, the area is for messages "reached end of page", "not found" and may be others. Useful feature, but such an empty area is worrying, and the message looks equal to "Find All", what is a button. So * Design of message area should be different from button area. * add Tooltip due to "Bug 85952 - Tooltip missing for new Message area in find bar"
Also related to "Bug 85953 - Missing Item Text for Find Bar Message Field" I think no bibisect is required, this simply is a new, still incomplete feature.
*** Bug 85953 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The below commit is where this feature was implemented Adding Cc: to matus@libreoffice.org. Could you possibly take a look at this and see if there is an obvious way not to show the find message space as though it were an overflowed button? Thanks commit f25cdaa78d5e7d200fbaf31cce9895bab7c5ee63 Author: Matúš Kukan <matus.kukan@collabora.com> Date: Tue Feb 4 15:46:41 2014 +0100 fdo#74132: Do not interrupt search in Writer. Instead of "Do you want to continue at the beginning?" dialog, just inform that we were at the end of the document in new label. Also replace 'Search key not found' dialog with label.

Adding bibisected to whiteboard as bisected keyword is a subset of bibisected whiteboard. Thanks!
Andras Timar committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=9fd38a52e1663addfc6f0581543a066592d3570d add label to .uno:SearchLabel (related: fdo#81925) It will be available in 4.5.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
My patch adds a label to .uno:SearchLabel, so at least we will see something in Customize dialog. It makes little sense to switch off this placeholder, because then the messages will be written at the left edge of the toolbar, which looks ugly. It should not be configurable.
