Description pzgyuanf 2005-07-06 22:29:23 UTC
when docked buttons of windows stack fully on one edge, supply forwards and
backwards buttons to navigate.
Currently, the docked buttons hide in somewhere when this case occurs.

see screenshot.

Maybe the navigating buttons of editor(the <- , -> , V similar buttons at end of
the editor toolbar ) is not bad candidate.

Yes, now I see - we call 'docked' windows as 'sliding' and sliding buttons. Are you experiencing such situation
frequently? having so many windows as docked is rare situation, or is it not?
