Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 54672
Calc sheet names are hard to read
Last modified: 2019-11-17 23:31:31 UTC
The sheet names located on each tab at the bottom of the spreadsheet become very difficult to read when the scroll bar size reduced from its default setting (in display settings->appearance->advanced->item->scrollbar). At 14-15 px, the text becomes difficult to read. At 12-13 px, the text becomes grey, thus compounding the issue.
So the enhancement is that the sheetname font size should be independent from the scrollbar size.

Well, now we have Aooo 4.0.1 and I have only two questions: - Do the developers work with their product at all? - Can anyone -except developer "Eagle Eyes"- read the names of the sheets? Image is taken from Aooo 4.0.1, Lubuntu 13.4. And the size of this tab-bar is still NOT sizable!
To clarify the bug report, you have to dig into MS Windows display settings and change the scroll bar size to 15px or below. I'm just an ordinary user but in defense for the devs. This is a very rare scenario. Average Windows user don't even know you can change the scrollbar size and even less actually do. I can't speak for linux, mac os or Windows netbooks, there may be some desktops with small scroll bars.
