            Bug ID: 493984
           Summary: Inconsistent options for enabling viewing toolbars;
                    missing context-sensitive behavior for toolbar
                    configuration
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kdenlive
           Version: 24.08.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: User Interface & Miscellaneous
          Assignee: j...@kdenlive.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
(1) The way widgets, statusbar, and toolbars are switched on and off is not
consistent
(2) The Toolbar Configuration dialog is not context-sensitive

This is not necessarily a bug report or feature request but more of an
observation and suggestion for improvement.

(1) The menu View allows to switch on or off (enable or disable) the widgets
(for example Media Browser, Online Resources), and whether or not title bars
are shown. The Settings menu contains the controls for status bar, menu bar,
and whether the main and extra toolbars are displayed. However, a right-click
on the menu bar opens a list of all the widgets with their current view status,
and lists options for the main and extra toolbar (also with their current view
status). This is convenient but somewhat inconsistent.

I propose to move the controls for status bar, menu bar, and the additional
toolbars from the Settings to the View menu.

(2) A right-click on a toolbar gives the option to Configure Toolbars which in
turn opens the configure toolbars dialog window. By default, the Main Toolbar
is selected in the toolbar drop-down list. It would be better and more
convenient, if the drop-down list element corresponding to the toolbar where
the right-click was done on were selected. For example, the user right-clicks
the timeline toolbar, selects Configure Toolbar, and in the dialog window the
timeline toolbar would already be selected from the drop-down list.
