Didn't know that. Updated the script to support composer UI defaults.<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Couple of other ideas comments, too:<br><br></div><div>* Currently there are no side toolbars by default. Many apps utilize the left side toolbar for critical tools. To me, such tools in a GIS app are the canvas navigation tools. So whenever I to an initial setup of QGIS, I always put the Map Navigation toolbar on the left.<br>
<br></div><div>* Similarly, I always place the Plugins toolbar on the right side. There is currently a bug that sets that toolbar to not be shown on a default install (that should be fixed).<br><br></div><div>I would like to hear feedback on those two suggestions for default side toolbars. Following your suggestions (and mine), the default window would look similar to this (on Mac) [0].<br>
<br></div><div>+1 for removing Advanced Digitizing toolbar as a default, as all of the functions are available in the Edit menu already. If needed, the user can show that toolbar.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Another major layout issue is what the layout looks like after turning on all core plugins [1]. Then, what it looks like when all those plugin toolbars are shown [2]. This needs some work.<br>
