    Hello everyone. There's an issue I had faced when updated Inkscape 0.92 to 1.1 (both running on Win 10 1809).

    In 0.92, there was a pretty convenient interface with handy tool menu, which i've highlighted with a rectangle in the screenshot below:

    In Inkscape 1.1, this menu consumes a way more screen space, see below:

    Unfortunately, this menu is not possible to have been sized down.
    If I try to pull the "triple dot" on the left side of the menu, the menu allows to widen it only and doesn't let me to size it down.
    Here's the question: is there any way to size down this exact menu so that it have taken a little less space of the screen?

    I've discovered a way to translate this menu into a separate window, but this doesn't make it.

    Although i've managed to make it smaller in height, the window remains having the same width.

    p.s. the thing is I've not really knew the actual name of this menu, since I could not find any detailed information related to it nor in FAQ or in google in advance.
