I'd like to change the Toolbox to do this:
.____________________. or ._______________. or .____________.
| File Xtns Help | | File Xtns Help| | File Xtns H|
rather than (as now) this:
.____________________. or ._______________. or .____________.
| File Xtns Help | | File Xtn Help | | File Help |
Can people please tell me why (technical or HCI reasons) I shouldn't
do this, given that we don't HAVE to use GTK+ features just because
they are there. Comparison with other image editing apps (especially
on Unix/Linux) is appreciated, flame wars are not.
Ideally, of course, GTK+ would do *something* when menus are not
given sufficient width allocation, but that's not fixable for Gimp
1.2.0 release. Right now what I have most resembles the left-most
bad case above, and it's impossible to choose Xtns(!)
PS This is, AFAIK, a one-liner change in some data, and thus very,
very unlikely to break anything.
Nick.
