Disabling the next-gen Studio built-in plugin and enabling the beta makes the ribbon bar disappear completely. This is AWESOME and I recommend that EVERYONE do this to get a streamlined, uncluttered Studio experience. I’m so glad to see the real menu bar again. There’s 45 pixels between the viewport and the top of the screen in fullscreen mode or 56 in windowed mode/with the title bar. I don’t know which built-in plugin is responsible for this (so I can’t tell you which plugin you need to delete/move out of the folder) because I disable everything but certain plugins in a whitelist, but DO THIS NOW! Excuse me, I have to disable the Explorer beta now.
Whoops the user switcher is gone, could it be added to the native menu please
Alt focuses the menu (this is common and expected menu bar behavior), which it didn’t do before IIRC. I just tried removing the menu with a tool of mine that can detach Windows menu bars, but it didn’t budge so it must be a Qt widget.
Correct. The first two “compact” designs we’ve gotten from our design team do not alter the icon size to start. It’s not worth explaining in detail but supporting additional icon sizes has all sorts of considerations — not that we won’t do it but it can’t happen as quickly as just tuning the spacing/padding.
Correct. And selecting/deselecting UI doesn’t make the UI tab disappear. In a world of custom tabs, you may have a scripting tab you like better than ours. So how annoying would it be if we kept switching to the default Script tab?
That said, we are thinking forward about contextual preferences where we can have the best of both worlds (you specify what you want Studio to do when you select a Script tab). But there’s more foundational work required to get there.
Menu icons are a little trickier now that we support native menus on macOS. But not impossible so we may revisit.
Yes those more complex controls aren’t yet supported in Add Tools. The workaround for now is to duplicate the tab that does contain those controls and edit it from there. Tiny grid of icons is also sort of a complex control but it’s a request we’ve heard.
Could we maybe get the ability to set events? Like in our custom tabs we can set an event like “script opened” or something like that? It’s probably a weird suggestion, it’s just something I came up with.
Yeah something like that is what I’m thinking. We’ve got a mountain of work before we get to that point. But the good news is we are working in that general direction.
Perhaps you guys can implement a default button frame with a UIListLayout that houses only a certain number of compact button elements? I don’t think it would be that hard to implement, though drag and drop may make it more difficult.
It’s not in the default Plugins tab for me, and if I had to make my own tab with them, I would have to manually also put in every plugin. I think it’s more convenient to have them in the default Plugins tab.
