Here is the best I could think of:
- Commands bar
- Tool controls bar
- Toolbox
Any other ideas?
To make translators happier it is better to avoid "noun noun noun" sequences (as for the second toolbar).
Maybe "Tool specific bar" could be a good idea?
Presumably the actual implementation will be a menu something like this: View, Toolbars, Standard Tools Tool Options
So the word toolbar or bar will not need to be repeated and similarly the documentation will construct sensible sentences. Bulia, can you clarify what you had in mind and help focus the discussion?
Although some have argued that strictly speaking "Tool Options" is not the best description I have to point out that it has the benifit of being consistant with the existing commercial graphics software and the contents of that toolbar is roughly the same as the option the Gimp puts in it tool options dialog.
