Minimizing space occupied by view 3d header menus

Hi folks!


Current menus on the left side of header is take a lot of space, especially in edit mode. Converting them into only icon buttons can solve problem. Also, maybe it is a good idea to remove Vertex/Edge/Face buttons and merge them to mesh select mode toggles. The behavior will be similar to new toolbar buttons: one click is enable/disable mode, long click for opening menu.

Of course it can be optional in case of not disorienting new users.

Would be good to just have icons when you "collapse menus" in the header right click toggle.

@ondraise15: It is a nice idea!

@stepanovoleg.dev: Yehp, right now when collapsing menus, it just thows a hamburger icon. This is hard to tell what it is when all the menus are hamburger icons.

I agree with this idea the current layout takes up too much over head space, I currently set it to collapse menues but with this layout you have more space and tge conveinience of your tools at one click
