As I already mentioned in the forum topic (http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=7702) I used the feature to rearange the toolbar items an miss it in version 0.6.0. With version 0.6.0 of the xfce4-terminal this feature was removed in favor of removing the dependencies to exo and dbus-glib. So I have a few questions to understand better the whole case: 1) Is it possible to readd this feature without this dependencies? In a sane way of course. 2) Isn't exo a dependency of Xfce's core? So exo is installed on the system anyway, right? 3) Why was dbus-glib used in xfce4-terminal? Can it be avoided? 4) Is it possible to use a opt-in compile flag? Many thanks in advance for answering my questions.
Yes exo is a normal dependency of xfce, however it was only used for the editor (while it previously also served other code that is now part of glib/gtk). dbus-glib has nothing to do with this, as there is dbus code in glib now, which xfce4-terminal is using. The question is what do you miss on the toolbar and how could it be improved. Fact is that not a lot of people use the toolbar, but IMHO if we come up with a good hard-coded one, it should still serve the users who use it. You can manually edit some files before compilation to get this back.
What's about controlling the visibility of the elements in the existing terminalrc file? E.g.: MiscToolbarsDefaultElements=111111100000000 0 = Hidden 1 = Visible Without the old drag'n'drop editor. The number and position of the toolbar elements is fixed.
Thats really hacky. What I'd like to know, what would you want to hide and why?
1) New window: Because I open a new terminal window via panel starter. 2) Previous/next tab: I click on the tab in the tabbar to open it.
Well to me that doesn't sound worthy to introduce preferences.
