 Just managed to take a quick look tonight. On an XO the Stop button falls

 - Use separator.set_size_request(0, -1) on the invisible separator that is 
 used to push the Stop button to the right, otherwise it takes up some space 
 and can trigger an overflow.
 
 - We can drop the separator between 'Restart Game' and the 'Equal Pairs' 
 icon
 
 Thanks! Just in time to the release :)
 I needed remove the intermediate separator and do the set_size_request, but 
 we will have problems with other languages.
 The spanish translation of 'Load demo games' is 'Cargar juegos de 
 demostracion' and two buttons are out :(
 
 Damn :-( :-( Keep getting caught out by toolbar text translations.
 
 Manuel: Pester/remind me about adding a new HIG recommendation to avoid 
 using text in the toolbars unless there is plenty of free space available, 
 this one has caught us several times already.
 
 Yes Gary, I was also thinking that we should add this advice in Sugar's HIG
 
 
 May be we can use a collection button (with a box, like in abacus or turtle 
 art?
 
 Yes, I guess is the option we now have. We will need an icon, or icons for 
 the current 3 demo games. We could use a single icon like TamTam Synth's 
 sound presets (a memorise like document would do), or try for a custom icon 
 for each game like Walter tried for Abacus – if there are good candidates 
 (addition, letters, sounds).
 
 As we are already late, I can try to do this change before monday
 meeting.  Gonzalo, if you updated the patches, please send them to me.

As discussed in todays design meeting, here is the collection style icon for a 
menu palette to replace the current memorize combo box for access to demo games 
(the resolves the issue with translated text overflowing the toolbar):

 Raises an interesting issue regarding disabling of a primary toolbar icon 
 with a secondary palette, or do we just disable the demo game buttons on the 
 secondary palette. Need to watch for corner cases, e.g if the demo game 
 secondary toolbar is already open when a user clicks customize. Perhaps we 
 do not need to disable the demo game selection now that we have the warning 
 message (i.e. allow users to load in different demo games so they can 
 see/edit the cards directly in customise mode)?
 
  Some suggested string changes:
 
 - 'Click for non equal pairs' should be 'Set non equal pairs'
 
 - 'Click for equal pairs' should be 'Set equal pairs'
 
 - 'Click for ungrouped game' should be 'Set ungrouped game'
 
 - 'Click for grouped game' should be 'Set grouped game'
 
 
 Perfect, applied.
 
 Other than that it's looking good! :)

A comment on the box figure..
The projection view looks distorted, especially when enlarged.
It is a bit hard to recognize as an open box when small as the interior
corner hint is so small relative to all the other lines.

Consider a version of the Etoys supplies box as a substitute (perhaps a
mirror image).

I think the box does not look distorted by the projection, just IS
distorted.
We did a few tests, may be this box is from a fast test we did.

When I did my proposal, I was worried of the size of the toolbar, and moved

how to solve all this.

Works.

Hmm, there are a few corner cases:
- open Memorize
- select letters demo

--- I have the edit option for a paired game

- open Memorize
- select sounds demo
- go to edit
--- the edit mode is correctly paired game

Did you just stop drawing the round box? side-note: I wonder as well 
what the palette for those buttons should look like. At the moment they
