The VA toolbar shows a strange behaviour under VS.NET:
a) when VS.NET looses focus, the VA toolbar becomes disabled. No other toolbars (VS, add-ins) show this behaviour.
b) the toolbar menu (the drop-button at the right of every toolbar), where one is supposed to be able to add/remove buttons from the bar, is always completely disabled. No item is selectable.

b) is the case even in VA.NET. I agree it's a bit annoying -- I like to strip down my toolbars to just those buttons I use.

You can still do it by holding Alt and dragging off the buttons you dont want.

I never knew that. Thanks for the tip.

Here's another related bug, though. After removing some of the buttons, they no longer show up in the toolbar menu. (Of course, as previously discussed, the toolbar menu is inoperative, but...). The correct behaviour is to show all the buttons that are usually on the toolbar, so that they can be turned on again from the menu.

Right, forgot to mention that. Thanks.

BTW: the Alt+Drag works in any MFC application.

Geeez, that is nasty: you have fixed the "toolbar becomes disabled when VS looses focus", but now, when the toolbar IS disabled (because you edit a not supported file) and VS.NET looses focus the toolbar becomes ENABLED. Really nasty
