Hi Karel, thanks for the mail. Actually, you're talking about the 'plugin' and as it *dhould* be core functionality.. that's exactly what I'm trying to acheive. The DualDisplayPicture plugin will be deleted as of tonight, and it's feature will become part of the core. That's why the question arose.
Now, the thing is, I don't want one button to show/hide both, because that's not interesting. The real issue is the menu item. We're not talking here about a right click menu either. It's a button on the right... I don't know what you think about this... I would go with remove the option from the menu, anyways, we have the button on the right to bring up the DP frame right ? it's not like the buttonbar!
