Description JPollak 2003-06-13 18:12:57 UTC 
Version:           3.0.0a4 (using KDE KDE 3.1.2)
Compiler:          GCC 3.2 
OS:          Linux

In IDEAl mode, The variable/watch tab is hard to use, because its either narrow or takes up too much space on the screen. Also, the veritcal format wastes a lot of space if you only have a short number of watches (which I think is typical).

It would be nice if the tab could be wider, at the bottom of the screen, and 'borrow' space from the bottom tabs. IE, in debug mode, the GDB tab would move over to use 50% (or so) of the window, and the watch tab would use the other 50%.

Actually it would be really nice if Tabs/Dockable windows would be freely configurable (with DnD if possible) like in DevStudio for example.
Comment 2 Jens Dagerbo 2003-12-07 20:51:09 UTC 
And now it is possible, with the new KMDI based implementation. Just drag the watch window and dock it the bottom instead.
