Description jrojcek 2007-04-13 08:35:13 UTC
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 the Edit 
toolbar, we need to remove:

Find toolbar button

Should be fixed for M9. Please reasign to responsible engineer.

Jano Rojcek is your usability contact regarding this issue.
