Yes ... with all this lying inside the window border decorations (when
we are drawing decorations) of course.
Currently
the toolbar increases the size of the window, when switched on. It
could
as well decrease the size of the contents view. Which should we
implement in the future?
We should do the same as MacOS-X does. I haven't tried, but I expect
that the content view stays the same and the window resizes around it
so that the views within the window are not disturbed. I imagine that
the window therefore grows upwards when a toolbar (or internal menu)
is added, with the bottom of the window (and content view) remaining
at a constant position on screen. Of course, if this would take the
top of the window off-screen, you would probably want to reposition it
automatically to keep it on screen, so Apple may have decided to have
the window grow downwards ... we need to test.
