SOFTWARE VERSION: Beta 5.0 SDK STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM: Create a toolbar that contains more items as it normally could display. You´ll see a small arrow on the right side of the toolbar which indicates that there are more items. EXPECTED OUTCOME: When clicking on this indicator something with finger friendly buttons should pop up. These buttons should have the same size and style as the toolbar. There is no need to show text labels or keyboard accelerators there. ACTUAL OUTCOME: When clicking on this arrow a menu pops up with only stylus sized items. Those items have small icons, a text label and a keyboard shortcut. This especially happens when an application is used in portrait mode because then the toolbar can hold only about half the items that it can hold in landscape mode. REPRODUCIBILITY: always

Moving to GTK
Confirming.
WONTFIX for Fremantle. Forwarding internal comments: "The default GTK+ widget indeed shows a menu with menu items when the overflow arrow is clicked. This is unfortunately not configurable. Changing this requires changes to all GtkToolItems. Of course all third-party GtkToolItems are not under our control, so these cannot be expected to be updated. The landscape mode provides reasonable space for menu items. Applications are expected to use landscape only UI. Toolbar overflow is not supposed to be used."
