Toolbar on canvas for touch and non touch S60 devices

by Marcelo Barros

Toolbars are a common components in modern operating systems, in general represented as a panel with small icons or similar components that can be moved and enabled/disabled. Toolbars add functionality and facilities for users, making enjoyable the user experience. However, few S60 applications have support for toolbars, even in touch enabled devices, like XpressMusic 5800, where touch screen is an invite for toolbars.

In this Forum Nokia article is presented a toolbar implementation for PyS60 applications called CanvasToolbar. It can be used with S60 3rd and 5th devices, with support for moving and enabling/disabling functions.  You can see a video with this toolbar running on E71 and XpressMusic 5800.
