Hi,

I am wondering if it is possible to change or customize the LibreOffice

I would like the ability to customize this side bar for features I use more
often.

Two thoughts:

o The Character section of the Properties panel (of the sidebar) has a (very small) More Options button at the right. That brings up the Character dialogue that you need, and may be a more convenient way of invoking it than through the Format menu.

o One of the panels available in the sidebar is Styles and Formatting. If you create a character style for "hidden" (which is probably good practice anyway), that would be easily available there.

I trust this helps.
