Tool Bars Question
-
Dave this is something like a snoring spose - everyone suffers from things like that but we still never really tell him/her and despite we love him/her.
-
Yes, but with a snoring spouse, I can go sleep in another room.
-
So you can go Mac and set the tollbars individually

Sleeping in another room, and sleeping in another room with another person are not the same thing, Gaieus.

Well, true.

You guys need to warm me about stuff like this. I just spit coffee on my keyboard!

That's not the first time youdo it, Dave, as I remember! Watch your keyboard!

Yup that is one thing about SU that drives me absolutely bonkers, and the fix is not just a simple rearangement (which can take a while if you use many plugins) as you need to fix, save, close and reopen with crossed fingers that it works.
Whats up with this? we can keep hundreds of aledged extremists from moving at Gitmo, but cannot stop a few harmless icons from spreading on a computer screen...sheesh!! -
I should also have a JointPP toolbar somewhere but I haven't been able to find it since one of these disasters
Edit: I got it now, sorry.

-
really, i got a solution that works with me (though needs a tweak every new plug in) - i run 4 different sketchup sets with different layouts and different settings (and they stay like that)
if anyone is interested i will try and write down the system (later this evening - time for holy mass!)
-
what I found out what helps to place the toolbars, where you want them is this:
if you drag and drop the tools you want to move, don't release them exactly at the point where they shall be positioned.
instead release the mouse button, when the cursor hovers exactly on the top right corner of the toolbar that you want to see on the left of the toolset you are moving. (was that understandable
? I attatched a short animation to demonstrate...)
[Edit] if the animation doesn't play, please click on it... [] -
What you said makes sense but it doesn't work for me.
-
Yes, Jacob, I do exactly the same thing. Should this be a "tip & trick" category? I have always thought it is obvious but now as you mention...
-
Now that you mention it, that is pretty much what I do when I organise my toolbars.
Gaieus, this should be in the "Fix the frikkin bug already!" category.
-
This is not really a bug, this is a "feature" (say an annoying one)

here we go guys, toolbars peace agreement..
Thank you for that. I've printed it off and will give it a try. The main thing I'm fighting with now, though is getting the toolbars where I want them. It seems that it's the third row of toolbars across the top that are the problem. If I have a toolbar in the third row and want to add another, starts a 4th row. I can't seem to get more than one toolbar in that 3rd row no matter where I grab it or where I put it.
-
i know what you mean
! 'eventually' i also got all rows to fit (can't remember the stubborn one) - then...once i got those in place i ran to the registry and there i stayed! 
-
Is there a way to get your toolbar registry info into my registry? And would that help?
The toolbars almost behave as if they are too big but if I do manage to move one up to the third row, the one that's alreay there moves down to the 4th row. It's as if they don't want to share the same row. It doesn't seem to matter who created the toolbar either. I tried it with the Sandbox tools among others.
