Hi,
I've been looking at getting toolbar editing working (bug #157163). There are basically two options:
1. Make it work like in glade-2, where the toolbar is just a regular container, and you have additional tool items in the palette for toolbar buttons, check/togglebuttons and a toolbar separator item. You can also put any other widget in the toolbar, in which case glade automatically inserts a tool item container for you.
2. Implement a toolbar editor instead and don't expose the toolbar as a container.
3. Implement a non-widget relationship between the GtkToolbar and the GtkToolItem.
This would mean that on a right click of a GtkToolbar parent would
give you an "Add" submenu that allows you to add a choice of
- GtkToolItem
- GtkToolButton
- GtkMenuToolButton
- GtkToggleToolButton
- GtkRadioToolButton
- GtkSeparatorToolItem
In the case of a GtkToolItem we could add a placeholder.
Currently this is how non-widgets work in glade-3, we could probably do the same thing for menus come to think of it.
We talked a bit about this on IRC, for those that weren't there, Tristan explained a bit more. Basically, the toolitems would be handled differently than regular widgets, and would not be available in the palette. I don't think that is a good idea since the UI gets a lot less obvious that way, I would definitely prefer to handle this like glade-2 does, as regular widgets, or have a separate toolbar editor dialog.
