[Kstars-devel] toolbars

[Radian]

My first impression concerning that simplification policy was not positive but 
it is soon to juzdge and it may bring something good. If you have to reduce 
the number of buttons, I think that the five proposed ones are OK.

Toolbars customization is a common task for the average user and there's no 
problem in doing it; however I have the feeling that forcing a too simple 
initial interface degrades KStars a bit and I agree Jasem that it's handy to 
have the View toolbar accessible from the beginning, specially for slow 
system owners and new[bie] users.

I've just set the View toolbar with (spanish) text below the Main toolbar and 
a screen width of 1600 pixels is not enough to host all nine buttons. So, 
what about a dialog like this in the first-time wizard?

"Which toolbar setup do you want?
 - Clean: few buttons with text (default).
 - Classical: smaller buttons without text. Includes the View toolbar.
 [- Custom ?]"

At least the responsibility of an over-simplified first look would be on the 
user's side. :)

Hmmm... KDE with dbus, fewer icons, text under them... it seems that love is 
in the air...
