Please don't blame your self and don't treat that as angry critique. It's just the feedback. I like your changes for preview window BTW. ^__^ The minimal canvas width - 200 px is fine for my taste if possible. >> To workaround the issue it is possible to replace Gtk::HBox with >> Gtk::Toolbar widget (it allows cropping for button layout). >> The best solution (but requiring more work) is to move toolbar from >> canvas window to the Toolbox window. >> >> What do you think on that? > > > Let me try the quick way first (replacing HBox with Toolbar).

Yes, the Toolbar solution is easier to do. And it is a good step. I think we will ship the current version (0.63.04) as is and any further toolbar modifications will go to the next release. Please keep up your efforts! Cheers!
