Tweakers guide to Beta 2: hidden dropdown buttons

Friday, 25. February 2005, 13:01:40

, , ,

A new widget is being tested in Opera Beta 2: the hidden dropdown. It looks like this in the toolbar.ini file:

Button, 21209=Back + Show hidden popup menu, "Internal Back History"

This adds a single 'back' button to the toolbar, but on holding it pressed for a second the dropdown menu will appear. You can also hold your mouse button pressed and move down to make the menu appear.

Advantage: enables features while keeping the UI clean

Disadvantage: not intuitive, so will have to be learned

May not be intuitive, but the older versions of Netscape and Mozilla had it years ago.

Well, I like it but what I don't like about it is that apparently I can't have just the icon? I prefer my navigation icons to be w/out their title ("back", "forward" and etc).

What do you mean? The default toolbar layout does only show the images on the address bar.

You're right. My fault. :smile:
