After getting a vehement complaint from Abdel, I got to try out again the behaviour of the toolbars ;) The situation now is that auto toolbars (like the math toolbar) have two possible positions: auto and off. In 1.5, there were 3 positions: on, auto and off. I think it is a regression in functionality, even though the old UI was confusing. The possible menu positions in 1.5 were: [X] Math on [X] Math (auto) auto, currently on [ ] Math (auto) auto, currently off [ ] Math off These menu positions convey correctly current status IMO, but they do not convey what is going to happen when clicking on the menu entry, which is to cycle through on->auto->off->on. The fact is, that the GUI does not consider a tristate, but only a on/off setting. JMarc
