Description andydecleyre 2016-09-07 18:05:38 UTC

Version is 16.08.0 -- the version choices here are way outdated.

When the toolbar is placed vertically (on either the left or right side), it would be nice if the toolbar's items were aligned with each other.

I suggest that on left-to-right systems, those items be left-aligned, and on right-to-left systems, right-aligned. As it is, things look pretty sloppy. Screenshot attached.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a bunch of items to the toolbar
2. Move toolbar to a vertical position at the side of the window


Actual Results:  
Toolbar items are variously centered or left-aligned.

Expected Results:  
Toolbar items should be consistently left-aligned (on a left-to-right system).

Not an okular issue, i guess it'd be kxmlgui that decides how to display the actions.

You're right, thanks, it's not limited to Okular. I'm uploading another example, this time with Dolphin. It may be worth noting though that the Dolphin case can be worked around if you change the toolbar mode to icons-only.
