</div></div>I've been thinking for quite some time that we need a new approach to<br>
the problem of toolbar items following off the end of the toolbar This<br>
problem will be greatly exacerbated by the more frequent use of screen<br>
rotate one would expect with more use of tablet mode on XO 4.0 Touch.<br>
Most activities have not taken into account the potential squeezing of<br>
the toolbar by 25% even of they take into consideration general<br>
resizing of the screen due to rotation.<br>
<br>
A simple solution would be to double the vertical size of the toolbar<br>
and wrap the icons onto a second row.<br>

comments?</blockquote><div><br></div><div>It's a really good question.</div><div>I am thinking another: We really need rotate the toolbar?</div><div>May be had more sense when the old toolbar had text in the tabs...</div>
<div>Is very difficult design a interface making good use of the toolbar size,</div><div>and have a option were the toolbar have half the size.</div><div>Not all the activities have this problem, but if have more than six buttons, probably yes.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Maybe we can use the toolbar vertical, in the long side of the screen,</div><div>and rotate the icons and the palettes.</div><div>The problem with this approach are the activities with wide widgets in the toolbars.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Another option is have the option of inhibit rotate in a activity,</div><div>but is not so easy, what happen when the user switch activities?</div><div><br></div><div>Gonzalo </div><div><br></div><div>
