Ok, I am getting mixed messages. There are multiple options here:
- Tool bar at top of every message (current)
- Tool bar at both top and bottom of every message
- Tool bar at the bottom of every message
The tool bar at the bottom of a thread only does not make too much sense because you would loose the ability to reply to one individual message.
I think what Chris was proposing was #2. In my searching, I found that for most messages only 1 tool bar was needed as they are short enough both the top and bottom tool bars were fitting on the screen, causing unnecessary clutter/confusing and over all it looked pretty bad. Before we move to making a tool bar at the top and bottom of every message, I would ask that people read through some messages and see if the majority or minority had a tool bar on the screen.
There are those that go on for ever and scrolling is necessary of course. However, a tool bar only at the bottom would solve that. I think moving it to the bottom makes the most sense.
