Description Felix Rommel 2006-02-01 16:37:34 UTC 
Since SUSE 10 the option for configuring the toolbar look and behaviour from GTK/Gnome apps is missing in Gnome control center.

It is very annoying to edit toolbar settings for programs with the "Gnome Configuration Editor" by hand.

Please add this option to the "Gnome control center" again.

This would involve changing gnome-ui-properties.desktop

IIRC, this was removed as part of the control center uncluttering.  Anna?

Felix: As an alternative to gconf-editor, you can run gnome-ui-properties.
Comment 2 Felix Rommel 2006-02-05 22:52:37 UTC 
If you choose smaller icons in Gnome control center - like you did it with YaST - it would help make it also make it look more uncluttered.

With smaller icons you can add more options like gnome-ui-properties etc without having to scroll too much in the option list.

And I think options like gnome-ui-properties or even video settings are essential. OK not every user wants to change these settings but he/she must be able to adjust them if they want to.

And typing in "gnome-ui-properties" or "gnome-video-properties" or sth like in "Run command" box or even command line is NOT very user friendly. The user doesn't even know how these options are called - so how shall he/she type in the right command?

Anna, what's the status of this?  I haven't seen an update for 2+ months,
and we are running close to the release...

Working in SLED 10 and now for 10.3 with the 2.18 control center changes.
