Scott Wallace commented on SQ-154:
----------------------------------

I've just uploaded a new version (showNavBarCtl-sw.16.cs) of the fileout.  Still does not incorporate proper icons, so not ready for publication even if on other counts we approve of it.

The changes are:

(1)  The smaller-sized button is used when the nav-bar is hiding and only the button shows, even if the thicker nav-bar is in use when the nav-bar is showing.

(2)  New commands "show navigation bar" and "hide navigation bar" added to "display" category of world's Viewer.  Using one of these in an "opening" script, for example, a project can force the nav-bar to be hidden when the project is entered.

Thanks to Karl for the suggestions that led to both of these changes.

> Derived from TRAC ticket 3773 "Better "full-screen" mode for etoys" (bert, sept 07)
> Make the toolbar be simple to hide (see TRAC #3631)
> (scott) A checkbox in the world-halo menu governs the presence/absence of the toolbar. Further, for power-users, there has always been a command-key sequence [alt-shift-F] that toggles this.
> (bert) The checkbox in the world halo reads "show shared tabs" which I think virtually nobody would associate with the tool bar. Also, if any I would have looked for the "hide" option in the toolbar's halo menu. And, the HIG states that any modes including fullscreen mode should be exited with ESC. Not sure if we really want an icon as stated in #3631, maybe a flap tab would be better?  I agree this is not anything we need to turn to immediately but it's also not quite perfect yet. I'll push out to v1.1 for now.
