Description Jesse Litton 2016-02-04 19:02:33 UTC

I ran into the known bug 352110, where the krita window was way too large because the default tool size had caused the toolbox to be a very very tall single line column.

Being naive as to how to use krita, I tried right-clicking the tools (which does nothing when no document is open), dug through the menus, tried the scroll wheel on the toolbox, ctrl+ and ctrl-, etc.

As someone who's never used krita, it took me quite a while to figure out the solution.  I actually ended up going to the krita website to look for screenshots to make sure the large tools weren't just a fixed standard for the app.  Only then did I stumble across an image in the features section that showed there should be a context menu available.

I know that bug 352110 has been fixed, but it would be more intuitive/nicer for the user if the right-click menus worked before a document was open.  Thanks, and keep up the good work on what looks to be an excellent app.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open krita
2.  Right-click toolbox
3.  Nothing.

Actual Results:  
No toolbox resize/context menu appears

Expected Results:  
Expected context menu.
