Description Jiri Prox 2006-06-21 10:23:39 UTC 
NB 5.5 200606090200
pseudolocalized, japanese locales
fontsize 16

The tool bar of web.xml editor is too long when bigger font or localized build
is used. It's almost impossible to get to all buttons (e.g. Servelets,
Secutrity, XML) and to the tools (find, commnet, record macro etc.). There is no
possiblility how to scroll this long toolbar (is supports only scrolling of
editor contents). See the screenshot.

Comment 4 Erno Mononen 2006-08-21 15:02:11 UTC 
This should be probably solved in core/multiview (xml/multiview doesn't do 
anything special in this regard), reassigning for evaluation.
Comment 5 David Simonek 2006-08-22 10:27:02 UTC 
Passing to multiview owner. AFAIK multiview wasn't designed for so much tabs in
it...
Comment 6 Milos Kleint 2006-08-22 10:53:43 UTC 
the UI spec declares what to do if the toolbar icons cannot fit into view. That
part is not implemented.
No spec for overflow of tabs. I don't even think it's necessary. If you over
flow that, you basically have too many of them and have a usability problem.

On top of that, it seems somewhat off-mark to file a bug based on the
pseudolocalized stuff. Please note that it contains the original english text
and on top of that also 8 other characters. I don't think it's a common case in
a real localized version. For example chinese chars will mostly be 4-8 chars max. 

TM -> future, not sure there will be enough resources to implement the first
case. The rest is wontfix.
