screenshot illustrating resize issue

the "toolbar" of the task list view (where "Find [___]", working set selector and active task selector reside) does not scale when resizing. instead the rightmost items simply disappear.

my task names are rather short, so the view does need less than half the size of the above mentioned toolbar -- resizing so big that the toolbar entries are shown is a pure waste of space.

see attachjed screenshot.

after further consideration i question the "select active task" dropdown as such -- it simply duplicates the tree below listing the tasks and marking the active one

i don't see, how this would be a duplicate.
resizing the find filed would be a workaround only -- it had to resize the find filed to a size of two or three chars visible. 

my issue is the layout of the task view as such, not the find filed size.

Please check the resize behavior in the latest version and reopen with further input if you still think sizing should be improved.

i use galileo and there are no updates available.
the situation is still unchanged -- i don't see, what "further input" i could provide.
