I'm using lyx 1.6.3 on Sabayon Linux 4.2. Which is fairly impressive BTW. I like most of the user interface. Well that is except that As a keyboard-centric user with very poor mouse coordination I always resent screen space taken up by point n' click specific tools such as most toolbars. For example if "<alt>+<p>[space]" worked without that scrollbox attached to the "standard" toolbar the .ui file would say
=> Toolbars => "standard" "off,top" => "extra" "off,top" => "table" "off,bottom" => "math" "off,bottom" => "minibuffer" "off,bottom" => End As it is the only one I leave on is "standard". And that to keep the viability of the "3-key,2-stroke" keybinding "<alt>+<p>[space]". Thus I put up with wasting a whole line of screen space on mostly useless stuff I would never ever "click" on. Likewise, If I want to switch to another open document with lyx 1.6.3 I'd use "<alt>+<D>[2]" to switch to the second open document, via the pull down menu. Though I'll admit my fingers usually start with the old "<alt>+<v>[2]" that isn't in the view menu anymore before I realise that the functionality was moved to the Documents pull-down menu. BUT I would never ever wrestle with my mouse to get that (expletive deleted) pointer on the name of the document displayed with an [x] just under the toolbars... And that would be so, even if I wasn't just as likely to accidentally click on one of the [x]s... Is there any way to get them off my screen??? -- | ~^~ ~^~ | <?> <?> Joe (theWordy) Philbrook | ^ J(tWdy)P | \___/ <<jtw...@ttlc.net>>
