Description jrojcek 2006-08-01 10:24:19 UTC 
In the floating window UI spec, please consider using a very narrow version of title bar for floating 
windows like Projects, Files, etc.

If it's too much effor to implement it, then it's probably not worth it.
Comment 1 Jindrich Dinga 2006-08-01 13:17:13 UTC 
We were considering using "tiny" title bars for floating windows, however it looks that Java does not 
support this kind of title bars and we should paint them by ourselves. IMO, this approach is not good in 
case the user uses different theme than default one.

Assigning to Dafe who is implementing this feature and is able to say how much effort needs to be spent 
for implementing this tiny title bar. Dafe, do you want to add something? If not, feel free to close this 
issue or change it to the enhancement. Thanks.
