That's not entirely correct. The configuration menu is shown only for configurable toolbars and there are "regular" toolbars that are not configurable also, e.g. toolbars in extensions.
OK, you want to have the hyperlink bar configurable. > Please have a look at the pictures below to see what I mean > > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User:Camillem/MyDrafts#Before > and > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User:Camillem/MyDrafts#After > >> I mean, it's indeed a different implementation (because the >> controls are not independent from each other and so the toolbar >> itself implements some control logic), but until now I didn't see >> any difference from a UX point of view. > > Well, my question was also from a developper point of view : I think > this change would be beneficial to OOo (see > http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/User:Camillem/MyDrafts#Web_search_Toolbar > for more details), but I'm wondering if it's worth the effort. There are two ways to implement that feature: convert the hyperlink bar into a "regular toolbar" or extend the SfxChildWindow based implementations to support toolbars. Probably the latter would be a waste of time as the code is planned to be replaced. For a "regular toolbar" all code currently in the hyperlink bar class must be moved into the controllers - a quite challenging task. > That's why I was asking how long would it take to implement such a > change and what level of OOo knowledge would it require (as the > specificity of the implementation let me suppose it's more > complicated than it can seem in the first place). Depending on the knowledge of the developer a rough estimation for the effort would be 3-4 weeks. Too much for me to start that task now.
