The Revolution/LiveCode ‘Tools Palette’ has never been a purely tools palette.
The Browse, Selection, Graphic & Paint tools are strictly tools. You select a
tool and the pointer becomes that tool. Tools let you build or modify things.
All the other things on the Tool Palette are actually objects

You can hide the widget panel using the settings/gear icon.

Folks,
Some of the software I use has a "views" menu that shows a list of "columns" or
items that appear on a specific palette or screen. I wonder if such a menu
might be convenient in this case. The user could choose "basic", "extended",
"All" or whatever. I can sympathize with Richmond's desir

Why not have a palette where the user can relocate items to suit themselves?
In a common palette where all items are grouped according to their function,
Core objects, painting, drawing, widgets.

How about making the sections of the Tools pallette dockable? Allow the
users to stack them according to their workflow. I know the dev team wants
the shiny new things at the top, but that doesn't compel me to put widgets
into all of my projects.

It seems to me to be the logical way. There could be more than just one
widget pane, more tabs, grouped by whatever

If I was voting, I would vote for a pop-out menu, perhaps - so you would
have a widget button in the palette with a right-facing triangle which pops
out the widgets. Alternatively, you could right-click on a widget button
in the tools palette to show the widgets list
