I was going to send you a patch to help sort out the toolbar issue...
stay tuned.

>> In this first release, a description (for example coming from Write
>> activity) and an image (pasted from Record, Browse or Draw activity) could
>> be link to each node. You could move and zoom the main view or center it on
>> a specific node.
