VS2005 ROTD (Rant of the day!)

[Maximilien]

but I/we cannot "edit" the toolbar in VS.net 2003, it wants to convert the bitmap to 16 colors. for example, if I want to add a spacer between to buttons, I need to have access to the toolbar editor ( not the toolbar bitmap editor )

or, rather we can, but make them placeholders - i dunno, stick figures...yeah, that must be the way - stick_figure OPEN and FOLDER icons. anyone care to draw those for a good laugh? rara avis in terris

You could always do it programatically. ¡El diablo está en mis pantalones! ¡Mire, mire! Real Mentats use only 100% pure, unfooled around with Sapho Juice(tm)! SELECT * FROM User WHERE Clue > 0 0 rows returned Save an Orange - Use the VCF!

devs aren't supposed to be creating icons anymore

Yeah, that works really well when you work for a big multinational corporation and you're told that the commercial art department will get to your request for 7 stinking icons sometime in Q2 of 2007.

No I'd not seen that one. I'll give it a try. Thanks -- The Obliterator

Exactly my point! Well it seems I'm not alone in my request. Microsoft have an 'active suggestion' on their VS2005 feedback site. It now has 2 votes! I wonder how many it needs before they implement it?! https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=134188[^] -- The Obliterator

heheh agreed. but without a toolbar editor how is a developer meant to work with the shiny images when he eventually gets them from the art department?! answer obviously is the hard way - by hand! -- The Obliterator
