I have been using Planner for my TU874 development management project and it has been a great tool. I have had however hard time with the toolbar as the most important buttons do not fit on the 10″ screen of my Samsung NC10.

There was built-in way to modify it so I decided to tweak a little the files. Here is a brief HowTo:

1. Things to know

• the files containing the info to modify are located here: /usr/share/planner/ui
• back up your files before you change them

2. To change a file, open it as root (I use the second method that adds an optoin uinder the right-click menu). Find the strig toolbar and delete/change position of the toolbars the way you like it. Save.

3. For my purpose I only modified the main window file to remove the buttons i never use (new,open,print,printpreview). Here is how it looks now:

<toolbar           name=”ToolBar”>
<toolitem        action=”FileSave”/>
<separator/>
<toolitem        action=”EditUndo”/>
<toolitem        action=”EditRedo”/>
</toolbar>

4. You can modify how each page looks in Plannerby modifying the respective .ui file.

Good luck
