The foremost problem with the main toolbar is that it doesn't fit on 1024 screen width when debugging (the debugging toolbar is on). This is not only the space issue, it's also about the number of items the user needs to comprehend. Recommendation: Eliminate toolbar items majority of users would not use. We need to eliminate at least 5 toolbar buttons so that the toolbar fits into 1 toolbar row when debugging. From UML we need to remove: Print Preview Should be fixed for 6.0 M9. Please reassign to responsible engineer. Jano Rojcek is your usability contact.
looks like a duplicate of Issue 94966 but with a bit different justification As I remember similar bug was closed before 94966 was filed with justification "we use netbeans toolbar" that's why I argue it's uml beg in description of Issue 94966. In my opinion toolbar should be updated with new functionality(scroll, arrows at side, may be possibility to drag buttons to second row etc) because we need more toolbar buttons in future (for example it seems good to add align toobar buttons in my opinion) and removal of one-two buttons now will not solve the issue.
Updating summary. BTW, there's a new button in the main toolbar - "Advanced Search". Does it belong to UML?
Should be fixed for M9.
Sorry, I missed this issue was filed against main toolbar, so it's not a duplicate
It's quite confused here in this issue. By default, there's no Print Preview button and Advanced Search (or do you mean the Find button) button on the main toolbar if main toolbar is what you meant here. However, there is a Print Preview button on the UML diagram window toolbar. Could you please clarify what is on what toolbar.
Forgot to say, UML does not have any button on the main toolbar by default.
I downloaded and installed the full bundle from this location: http://bits.nbextras.org/netbeans/6.0/nightly/200704131723/installers/ And a "Print Preview" button appears in the main toolbar after installing the build and running it with clean userdir. I'll attach a screenshot. There's no "Advanced Search" button anymore.
Created attachment 40989 [details] Print Preview button in the main toolbar (next to Save All).
The full bundle includes the SOA Pack. I believe the print preview action comes from the SOA pack not the UML pack.
Okay then, sorry about that. I didn't know it belongs to SOA. Reassigning to SOA component.
Updating summary. Please take a look at this issue for M9.
Print Preview and advanced Search buttons have been removed from main toolbar.
BTW, Print Preview is not SOA specific. This action allows user to print and preview any text documents (plus bpel and uml diagrams). Now NetBeans has very poor print functionality (no preview).
Verified.
