Right click on any bar and select "Configure...", then select "Icon & Text" 
from Content dropdown for any bar. Result is that buttons are now far too wide 
and all of them won't fit on screen, more likely necessitating a dropdown list. 
I've not seen this problem to such a degree in other programs (eg. Winzip, 
Internet Explorer, WordPerfect 6.1 etc.). I like using "Icon & Text" because 
remembering which icon does what can be very difficult because different 
programs can use different icons for the same function. I know that the user 
can simply move the cursor over a button to get a tooltip will pop up, but from 
an end user's viewpoint this is very tedious. It would be very nice to be able 
to know at a glance what a button does by reading a description, but having to 
scroll down through the buttons is also tedious. The solution would be first to 
use different terminology. Examples are: "Template" instead of "New Using 
Template", "Open" instead of "Open File", "Save As" instead of "Save Document 
As", "Preview" instead of "Page Preview", etc. All toggle buttons can be 
simplified by removing "On/Off" or "Show/Hide") and making the default button 
size smaller when using text. Next, the default button size when using text 
needs to be decreased. This problem is important enough to me that I went to 
the trouble of registering with OpenOffice.org in order to be able to suggest 
improvement in this area. I sincerely hope that you will give this 
recommendation some consideration.
