Description Maciej Pilichowski 2006-11-24 20:40:24 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

It is about toolbar:
a) what buttons to show -- for example I would like to remove "back"
b) placement of buttons -- I would like to make "new folder" more easy to spot
c) size of buttons & size of the text
d) and location-edit box mode -- I personally like original KDE edit-box but as far as I can see it is not that good for "beginners"

ad.d) Gnome-style would be good alternative -- the last directory is highlighted (and "pressed" AFAIR), all parts of path are separated so it is easy to read like:
Documents  Work  2005
not
Documents/Work/2005

Gnome uses just buttons, but small arrows between those buttons would be nice. It makes it more readable for vision-impaired people.

This is config what i miss, KDE users who already knows how to edit KDE UI, are forced to use open/save dialog what you cant edit so much...

KDE4 could add possibility to move toolbars like on konqueror (to up, down, side to side), edit toolbars (buttons to show and size) etc.

And one thing what i really miss, is possibility to change navigation panel order. If i add new link to list, it goes always last one, i cant drag it to other location. If i want my link to be first one, i need first delete all other links and then add them on order what i want them to be. This should be more like editing toolbar. And mayby it could be good idea to add "lock panel" like kicker has to prevent unwanted actions.

Not sure it is not implemented, anyway it is a kdelibs issue
