screen real estate is important to me. especially working on a small notebook screen i want to get the most out of it. and i know: all the cool (and fancy) ui items in eclipse have a price.

so how to get more space for important things like my source files? eclipse has feature to hide the toolbar completely. for this i simply use the context menu and select ‘hide toolbar’:

hide toolbar

hide toolbar

while this is great, there is one little problem: how to get it back? obviously there is no toolbar any more where i could use a context menu like ‘show toolbar’ :-( .

the solution: there is a menu item for this under window > show toolbar:

show toolbar menu

show toolbar menu

happy toolbaring :-)
