Description Darin Wright CLA 2002-12-04 11:24:25 EST
Since the Ant view really has "two views" (scripts and active targets), I find 
that the toolbar is very misleading. The tools are rendered overtop of the 
active targets view, but really operate on the scripts view. For example, the 
remove/remove all actions. I thought they would remove active targets, but they 
removed all my scripts.

Looking at the "type hierarchy" view as an example (which also has two views), 
it has rendered a second toolbar and placed tools pertient to each view within 
the proper toolbar. We should consider doing something similar. (however, this 
reduces screen realestate).

Done. Each half of the view now has a toolbar where we can put actions. The
toolbar also has a label, which lets us explain what the sections are for.

Exactly which actions will appear in the toolbars and what the labels will be
are issues that I expect to evolve in the near future.

Please verify.

Marking fixed (Thanks, Bugzilla).
Comment 3 Darin Wright CLA 2002-12-04 15:39:57 EST
Two red squares appear in the toolbar for the "active targets". The buttons 
appear to do nothing (but usually indicate a missing icon).

Hadn't released the new "Move Up" and "Move Down" icons. :) Try again.
