Description Andrew McCullough CLA 2002-03-21 09:46:30 EST 
When trying to close the hierarchy view, I always expect to find the "X" in the 
far upper right hand corner.  I never do.  Seems that most views put the X 
there.  Also, when using fast-views a similar thing happens to the packages 
view and (I think) to any view with a toolbar.  However, that may be by design, 
and since it is a "special case" is far less disconcerting.

The position of the close box is controller by Platform UI - moving

Yes. This needs to be fixed.

After playing around with this some in the March 21st build, it seems this is 
caused _for all views_ when the toolbar at the top of the view does not have 
enough horizontal screen real estate for all the toolbar buttons, of which 
the "X" (close) is one.  When this happens, the toolbar splits into a multi-
line toolbar.  Not sure what this means for fixing this, but it would be nice 
if that "X" was always in the upper-right-most corner.
