Sort items for Toolbar customise

[Pšenda]

Some group items and their possible alternatives are displayed logically - that is, the group item (with a small triangle), and then its individual items.

But some items are completely illogically in reversed order,

or even completely chaotic.

 

Setting up the Toolbar is thus quite demanding and laborious, because it is not clear which of the items can possibly be grouped and which cannot.

Therefore, I am asking for a logical and unambiguous arrangement of the items that can be grouped, and possibly also for their visual differentiation/grouping, so that it is obvious at a glance which items can be grouped and which cannot.

Thank you.

I like the idea. It might help avoid a bit of confusion if you edited your topic title to say "Tools customize" rather than "Toolbar customize"  

(Though, it is interesting that the dialog itself refers to "toolbar". I think that's a minor error that should be fixed, sometime, by Serif.)

Although the grouping of tools is entirely down to individual user needs and preferences, some people may group their tools according to specific workflows they use so otherwise-’disparate’ tools are close to each other, I think I might be nice if the tools in the Customise panel were categorised, by name, in some way.

For example: Shape Tools; Selection Tools; Text Tools; Deform Tools; etc.

That would give users more idea of which tools they might need if they know what sort of work they are doing.

I'll just add, as it is clear from another thread, the tool selection panel differs depending on the OS, or it is not displayed correctly at some Scale factor values.

Serif was alerted to this error a year ago - and nothing.
