And to test the horizontal navigator and reorganized toolbar here is the hack:
1 - Backup categorysidebar.py, navigator.py, viewmanager.py, grampsgui.py and config.py
2 - Before replacing the following files display the Navigator and select Category as view.
3 - Get the 7 modified files and replace them in your Gramps installation.
(you can see modifications by performing a text search on “###” in these files)
4 - Run Gramps
5 - Take in place your original files after test.
The 7 modified files are in the zip file here :
Install icons for Plugin manager and Preferences available here (only svg files are required) :
[EDIT : new version : december 22 2020]
This version allows you to modify categories’s buttons order, separators and colors used (see the first change in file categorysidebar.py).
- Toolbar and horizontal categories’s bar positions are inverted.
- A button to show/hide menu bar and another one to show some tools are added to the toolbar.
- Popup menus replaced with popover menus
- Combined tree managment button and recent trees list menu
- Opened tree name removed from the recent trees list
- Add a Dynamic Navigator mode for smalls screens : to test it :
1 - select : “Show text label beside Navigator buttons” in Preferences’s Display tab
2 - in categorysidebar.py replace “False” by “True” in the line
self.use_dyna_nav = False and use_text
to read
self.use_dyna_nav = True and use_text - Navigator mode configuration context menu (icons only, text only, icons and text, dynamic navigator +
big or small icons).
To access menu right click a button inside the Navigator.
Do your choices and restart Gramps after.(now no restart is needed).
Best regards.
