[Panel-devel] [PATCH] Smaller toolbox with icons

[Craig Duquette]

That's pretty cool, I was thinking of moving the icons to the arc of
the toolbox also. What about this? I've moved the + to the right and
the two zoom buttons appear on the bottom of the toolbox. Someone from
IRC had a similar idea of moving icons to the two different sides.

This patch also contains the non-resizing toolbox code in it. Now the
toolbox will be displayed against a white background when zoomed out
so I semi-reverted the gradient back to the original. The edge fades
to fully invisible when fully expanded. I think it'd be cool to have
it fade to invisible on the default view like the original patch..

Also any idea on how to do tooltips? There is a function
setToolTip(ToolTipData), but I'm really not sure how to construct a
'ToolTipData' thingy..
