Plugin development - Creating multiple toolbars in Author

[calvados]

Hi there,
I'm wondering if there is a way to create more than one tool bar for my author mode plugins or actions? The one created via ->preferences->document type association is not large enough to hold all the actions I've developed, and is showing them via a drop down tab at the edge of the window. I'd like to create a 2nd tool bar to better organize the actions.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Cal.

Anybody?

Hi Cal,

Sorry for the delay.
Unfortunately you can add only to a single toolbar when creating actions for the Author page. But you can add "Actions group" components in which you can add related actions and have them appear under a single toolbar item.

Hope this helps,
Regards,
Radu

Hmm...Can we add this as a feature request? I've currently got > 30 buttons that support different functionality, and it would be splendid to be able to allow the user to hide and show whichever functional groups they choose.

Thanks,

Cal.

Hi Cal,

We'll consider this for a future version.

Hi Cal,

In Oxygen 11 (couple of weeks) you will be able to add your Author custom actions to four different toolbars.
