Some screenshots illustrating the problems
SUMMARY
In this bug report I try to summarize a few things that I do not understand
regarding the tool bars, and which I think could be improved to improve the
user experience.
* The ordering of the symbols on the toolbar seems to be partly hardcoded (?),
it does not reflect the ordering in the configure window. E.g., the "Build"
button is on the left, however, if I add an "install" button, it appears far
right (see screenshot).
* The dropdown list with the toolbar names has something to do with the loaded
parts used to ensemble KDevelop. However, is it necessary to show this to the
user this way? There are e.g. three debugger toolbars somehow.
* There are items appearing multiple times in the list, but only once in the
toolbar (Host environment, see screenshot)
* The "Current Launch configuration" dropdown (which is very useful to me!)
does only adjust to the length of the launch configuration after a restart of
KDevelop. Here I already tried to dig into the source code to find out if
somehow a repaint of the toolbar can be triggered, but I wasn't successfull. (I
have no screenshot for this, but this can be easily reproduced by creating a
launch configuration with a long name and restarting KDevelop).
I'm also would like to try to fix this myself, but what I tried so far was not
very successfull so I would need some pointers where to start.
