Introduction
This chapter describes some common customizations that you may wish to carry out.
You can customize menus, toolbars, and keyboard shortcuts in LibreOffice, add new menus and
toolbars, and assign macros to events. However, you cannot customize context (right-click) menus.
Other customizations are made easy by extensions that you can install from the LibreOffice
website or from other providers.
Note
The menu bars in LibreOffice 5.1 Writer, Calc, and Impress have been reorganized to
improve the usability of the application. The most used application commands were put
together in the Styles, Sheets, and Slide menus, respectively.
Note
Customizations to menus and toolbars can be saved in a template. To do so, first save
them in a document and then save the document as a template as described in
Chapter 3, Using Styles and Templates.
Customizing menu content
In addition to changing the menu font (described in Chapter 2, Setting up LibreOffice), you can add
and rearrange categories on the menu bar, add commands to menus, and make other changes.
To customize menus:
1) Choose Tools > Customize to display the Customize dialog. Choose the Menus page
(Figure 350).
