Hi,

I'm a very satisfied lyx user, but there are two things that, while not really important, keep bugging me:

1) If I put two toolbars on on the side of the other (see toolbars-1.png attached), next time I star lyx the get rearranged (see toolbars-2.png). It's a very small glitch, but terribly annoing, especially if you use a widescreen monitor and put several toobars side by side.

2) There's no way to rearrange the buttons position in the view source widget, they have to be on the side of the source box; in the same widescreen as of point 1 =) I would like to keep a "split monitor" with text on one side and source on the other (like in split-screen.jpg - I patched the source to always have the buttons under the source box). I guess the widget layout should ideally pivot, having buttons and text box side by side when the widget is floating or anchored horizontally, and one over the other when it is anchored on the side of the window.

Cheers,
Luca
