Mathias, thank you very much for your explanations!A comparable functionality does not exist for toolbar items.

How can I define a quickhelp text for each toolbar item? It seems that by default the label of the toolbar item is used as the quickhelp (tooltip?) text, and that does not exhibit the shortcut key by underlying it. > As an example, I configured "SHIFT-ALT-G" for "Insert-Gallery" in the > keyboard configuration.

Just tried this via "Tools->Customize", but it did not work with the toolbar item. ---rony P.S.: One observation: it is not possible to delete the programmatically created toolbar using "Tools -> Customize" as the delete option is greyed out. One can delete the individual toolbar items and make the toolbar empty and on the next restart the toolbar seems to have gone. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@api.openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@api.openoffice.org with Subject: help
