I totally agree on Seoz points. First have them to prove why this is the case, otherwise you introduce new code that is unneeded and people have to maintain it... and if I know designers well, you'll have to later change your code because they will change their mind, then the code is unused by everyone :-/ And being a hack, I'd leave the hack to other places instead of Elementary. In your case, you can place the toolbar inside a box, and add padding rectangles to sides. Then you calculate the toolbar item size, the amount needed, resize the padding rectangles to force toolbar to be resized. Ugly as hell, but better in your app than in Elementary. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: [email protected] Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
