Show only icons in menubar instead of icons+text

Since I'm using WLM in a non-maximized window I'd like to have shown in
menubar only icons instead of icons and text, it would save a lot of space
and I wouldn't need anymore to click on the ">>" to find some buttons.

Same here. I've also posted this to the feedback page. You should also. The
more that mention it the greater the likelihood of their implementing it. :-)

It seems to be a half feature. E.g. in the registry there is a value called
Toolbar Text which is set to 1. I set it to 0 to see if anything would
change but ProcMon shows that value is never accessed.
So I will leave it set to 0 just waiting for whenever we get the code
that supports it. ; )

Actually I haven't tested to see what effect having that registry value set
to 0 when the Reset button is used. I don't really want to redo my
toolbar settings to find out. Be my guest to take credit for the discovery
if it works... ; )


Good luck
