Mar 8 2004 on content Reinhardt style without toolbar handlers |
First of all, I don't think that toolbar handlers are useless. For any computer newbie they are necessary. Why? Because they provide feedback to the user. It is like in the real world: things that slide or are supposed to slide, things that are meant to be handled somehow have a grip. Toolbar handlers provide that.
Now... You know that you can drag a toolbar... So... Let's get that handler out of there.
A style is a collection of rules that tells you how to draw widget features like buttons or... Toolbars.
To unable toolbar handlers, first get the source code of any style. Look for a section defining "toolbar handlers" (Pray for good commentaries on the source) and just comment the parts you don't want. Code is pretty explicit anyway.
You can look inside this patch to see a little bit more. It is very straightforward.
I am sorry for the long explanation. I just try to reach anyone trying this.
For more about usability, look for Jakob Nielsen or Alan Key papers on the net. (Google will do it fine) |

Great Style but:
Would it be possible to remove the toolbar handler?
I think that this style could be cleaner this way.
Perhaps an style option?
What do you think?
If there's anything I can help with, I will gladly |
