I use "disable" a lot, from the context menu. I'd like to have a button for that in the toolbar to save some clicks, but I couldn't find that action in the list. Am I missing a way to do that? If not, it would be nice if it could be added, thanks!

How do you save some clicks?
You have to select (click 1) move mouse and click button (click 2)
At the moment, rightclick on package/link (click 1) and click disable (click 2)

Because often it's already selected, or I'm selecting several with shift-click. Then it's easier to just click a toolbar button, than to right-click, move down the menu list to find it, and click again. Also it seems faster/easier to hit a toolbar button that's always visible and in the same place, than to navigate through a popup menu.

Actually there are several other buttons in the right-click menu that I would add to the main toolbar if I could, like Set Download Directory, Reset, etc. - I guess ideally, every menu button could be added also to the toolbar. Maybe that's a good idea?

Anyway, thanks for adding the ticket, if you get around to it sometime it would be handy.

I don't agree.

why not bind a shortcut key vs button? this would be faster again since you don't have to move your mouse, and your hand is already on the keyboard from pressing shift/ctrl combinations.

settings > user interface > linkgrabber|download menu editors :: enable

Fair enough. But I'm curious, why not? I mean, I can understand you'd have other priorities for your coding time... but there are several buttons in the menu that I'd quite like to have in the toolbar. It just seems a bit arbitrary, which ones I can and which ones I can't. I'm not really complaining, just some user feedback for you.

Because I'm old, and my memory isn't that good? But thanks, I'll try your suggestion to make shortcut keys for some of those menu items, and see if I can remember them next week!

I guess it's a general usability thing for me. There's lots of room in the toolbar, and I'd like to have my most-used commands right there in front of me all the time. When I open the right-click menu, I always have to kind of read down the list to find what I'm looking for. With the toolbar I have a better feel for where the button is already, because it's always visible. I was very happy when I figured out I could put a "delete selected items" button in the toolbar. It just feels more direct and comfortable than having to first open a modal dialog with right-click and look for it, or remember I have to use Function-Backspace key command (on Mac). Even if it's the same amount of clicking or dragging in the end, somehow there's just less thinking required. I think too much already!

Cheers...

Feedback is okay - don't worry
Now why I don't like your suggestion:
-The most things which make sense to have in the upper toolbar are already available
-You can set custom hotkeys for nearly all other actions --> Way faster than having to click something in the toolbar
-Toolbar ist just more complicated than contextmenu e.g. if you want to (de)activate things --> You'll always have to go up in the toolbar while its much easier to have the deactivate in the rightclick menu

...but that's just my personal opinion!

When we have time, we can add the button
