Description Viesturs Zarins 2008-09-15 10:38:52 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I cannot place the docked tool widgets the way it was possible in KBabel.

I guess it's a QT4 limitation from the "Central widget concept" ( http://www.potu.com/man/doc.trolltech.com/4.0/qt4-mainwindow.html ).  Currently the text editing widget is in the center and can have one ribbon below and one above and one at each side.	

With KBabel I had two column layout, but it's not possible to recreate it with Lokalize. See the screenshots for my efforts.

This is low priority, but maybe you can improve the docked window placing flexibility.

in the screenshot, how come editor has only one toolbar button?

Is this still an issue in the latest versions ? Flexibility looks good enough
