Custom Toolbar

Post by DaveRS » Wed Oct 07, 2020 7:32 pm

Custom Toolbar

MacOS 10.15.7
QCAD 3.25.2

Is it possible to create a new toolbar and put which tools I need onto that toolbar?

Failing that is it possible to edit existing toolbars to remove unneeded tools?

I could really do with reducing some of the info on the screen.


Thanks

Dave

Yes.
Please have a look at Menu / Edit / Application Preferences / General / Tool Settings
Work smart, not hard: QCad Pro
Win10/64, QcadPro, QcadCam version: Current.
If a thread is considered as "solved" please change the title of the first post to "[solved] Title..."

Well,
it is feasible with scripting but the question would be why bother.
What QCAD resource is so important that one wants to put it aside on yet another toolbar?
Or what resource is so unnecessary or obsolete one wants to get rid of it?

I think one should investigate what can be done right out the box.
One can set toolbars vissible or not and one can control what is on those bars too.
One can turn off about any widget or toolbar and work only from the menu bar.

The common answer remains NO.
PLS search for "toolbar" in the forum, Husky made more elaborated answers on the same topic.

Regards,
