Strange toolbar placement

Post by Marcel »

Hi again,

I messed around with all the codelite options/plugins. Really great IDE. I begin to love it (again, long time no see :P).

I switched the Option "Use single toolbar" and didn't like the result. So I turned it back on. But then all my toolbars were gone.
I added 3 toolbars via "View/Toolbars". But something strange happens:

I wanted to place the "debug" toolbar right to the "build" toolbar. But both are taking 50% of the space. When I try to pull one toward the other, nothing happens.
When I pull them away from each other, the other bar shrinks too. I am not able to get around it oO

And I really don't want to delete my AppData Folder again, because I set up a lot of stuff now :(

I just wanted all the build options in the second row and the other stuff in the first row. And of course close to each other and not with a padding of 50%

Seems like a bug in wxWidgets.
To reset the layout (it will also fix this problem for you):
Perspective -> Restore Default Layout

Hi Eran,

thanks...didn't see this option. Now it works fine again :)

Is it possible to attach the Workspace View tabs to the side or bottom?

EDIT:
Btw: The Debug window does not use the global foreground color for texts. It's not possible to read the text, when the colouring scheme is set to "Zmrok"

For the toolbar bug, it seems that happens when resizing the original rigthmost toolbar, but moved to not be the rigthmost anymore.
So a workaround to have correct size&correct placement is to first resize elements, then reorder the toolbar.

Hi Jarod42,

How do you resize the elements?! I just can drag them around.

Oups, sorry, this workaround is for an other app with similar problem...
You're right, can't resize toolbar.
