[ BUILD # : 200509261930 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_05 ] The "Actions API - Advanced Toolbar Configuration", (http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/org-openide-actions/org/openide/actions/doc-files/toolbarsAdvanced.html) referenced from the Actions API, needs to be updated. It says that there's no way to control toolbar ordering unless you use ToolbarPool.Configurations (although there are no hints for how to do that). The Windows API still includes <!-- reference to toolbar configuration --> <toolbar configuration="Standard"/> in the WindowManager.wswmgr file. The core layer.xml file has a hint about including a reference the Standard file in the Tool. I'm not sure which of these are really correct, but through a lot of experimentation, I've managed to get something working. Control over the initial placement of toolbars for applications is a requirement. Saying that "So, module-supplied toolbars will at least appear, though their exact placing will not be customizable" is just not acceptable.
wrong component
Stando, pleas look on it. Thanks
i've made some minor updates to the html document but there is not much i can do about this issue without a major rewrite of toolbars implementation.
not a regression -> switching issue type to 'enhancement'
the initial toolbar position is now defined by 'position' attribute on toolbar folder in xml layer.
