GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 649516
PDF Mod does not respect toolbar styles
Last modified: 2018-07-16 10:13:37 UTC
For the difference between toolbar styles "Text Beside Icons", "Text Below Icons", "Icons Only" and "Text Only", see this blogpost: http://blogs.gnome.org/thos/2009/07/29/toolbar-styles/ Currently, PDF Mod uses "Icons Only" even if a user has set something else (like "Text Beside Icons".
Created attachment 187372 [details] Which of the actions do you propose have text next to them? Having it next to all of them would make it much too wide (see attached screenshot).
Created attachment 187373 [details] Suggestion Well, personally I do not really care for "Text Beside Icons", I care for "Text Below Icons". In the case of "Text Below Icons", I think all icons should have text (at least that is how it works with other GNOME applications). Also, all icons should have texts in case "Text Only" is used. As for "Text Beside Icons", I am not sure. For one, I would opt for shorter texts (see edited image). If that is still too long, I am not sure. If I am no mistaken, the text should be next to the most used icons so that they are easier to target. On an unrelated note (that seems to me too marginal to open a new bug), "Bookmarks" icon lacks a tooltip when you hover over it.
pdfmod is not under active development anymore and had its last code changes in 2011. Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/pdfmod/commits/master Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
