Address Bar in Toolbar (Switch between Address and Breadcrumb bars)

Post by Evolve »

Could you make it possible to place the address bar below tabs so that switching to the breadcrumb bar would be smooth?

It would be even cooler if they were switching with shift + mouse wheel like toolbar button sets are.

Here is another idea, how about adding the Address Bar into the Toolbar itself like you did with the Menu Bar, making it a first-class citizen there?
I know it can be stacked on the right, but it's kind of too dense there for 2 bars and buttons.

I'd like to have the Menu Bar and most buttons in the first button set and the Address Bar with a few buttons for navigation in the second button set.

Last one appears to be almost possible. There is a tweak for reducing minimal address bar width down to 1 pixel ToolbarKeepOff=1 and pushing it out of ButtonSet1. But there is a problem that when I scroll to ButtonSet2, I then cannot scroll back cause the cursor is technically not in the toolbar area anymore.

Another problem is that when the window gets resized, AB comes back.

I actually think it would make sense to remove this "stacking to the right" stuff completely and instead make it possible for the address bar to be a first class element of the toolbar.
