It holds the tool buttons, it decides what tool is active, it has the most important menu and for that reason it also creates images when things are dropped there. > If the menu could also be removed or dragged to another dock, then > the last difference between the toolbox and the other docks would go > away. Or did I miss something important? You missed the important fact that the menu cannot be removed and that we don't intent to change this. Face it, as it stands, the toolbox is special. I really don't understand why you are questioning this. It's a fact. Sven
