We often have the problem that we don’t know how many items we should include in a component, for example a toolbar. We often end up adding some hidden extra buttons.
This works, but it has some really annoying downsides:
- We have to guess a good maximum number of items
- We have to detach if we want to add more
- We cannot handle separators in a good way, other than adding them everywhere and hiding them
- It’s way too difficult to reorder items
I suggest that autolayouts can have a property that allows for adding more items of a specified type (with reordering). Then we would be able to make our components much more simple and flexible.
