New Toolbars in ver 2.2 are BRILLIANT ! - thanks.

Hi People

I'm an engineer with ArcelorMittal in South Africa.  After seeing and using the new menu style/selection (with the drop downs and side bar option) I arranged a session for all the engineers and technicians in our section to demonstrate libreCAD to them.  The session was attended by about 8 people.

I think the new menu style is making libreCAD 300% easier and quicker to work with.
Especially for new users.  Thanks for this.

I'm happy to know that!

Be sure to investigate custom toolbars and menus.
https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/wiki/Widgets

Something to note is that custom menus connected with Ctrl+Right-Click or Shift+Right-Click,
will not cancel the current operation, which could be useful for snap modes.

Also make sure to consider 'Keycode mode' in the command line's menu
(if you are using 2.2.0-alpha), which automatically accepts 2 character commands.
