Description Nicolas Brisset 2004-12-12 23:11:38 UTC 
Version:           1.1.0_devel (using KDE 3.2 BRANCH >= 20040204, Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 (Mandrake Linux 10.0 3.3.2-6mdk)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.3-7mdk

When you want to change the number of columns used in a window, you need to open the plot dialog in the right tab: Content (or maybe I missed something ?).
For such a widely used value, which is futhermore independent from the contents of a given graph, I think a more obvious location would be nice (in addition to the current one, which is also useful). A combo box in the toolbar (much like point size in a word processor) would be very nice for that. Of course, the value would apply only to the current window and be updated when the focus changes windows.

The toolbar is already too busy.  There might be another place to put it in its own little context menu dialog (?) but not in the toolbar.
