Toolbar won't display

[goddard@…]

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Windows-10-10.0.18362
ChimeraX Version: 0.91 (2019-10-04)
Description
Toolbar does not display on startup in today's daily build.  It does in Oct 1 build on this same machine.  Also using the Tools menu to show the toolbar does not display it, although the Toolbar entry at the bottom of the Tools menu has a checkmark by it.

If you start ChimeraX from a cygwin terminal window, is there an error message? It's working for me at home, but I'm going to rebuild everything from scratch so I've got exactly the same version as the daily build.

I thought all errors before startup were supposed to appear in the log if ChimeraX starts. This is really important for debugging. I'll make a separate ticket for that.

[Tom Goddard]

This needs to be fixed. Max Krummel's lab is trying to do a demo on Monday with VR and they don't have a usable ChimeraX. Please at least back out the code you broke in yesterday's commit.

[Greg Couch]

Fixed. Linked button's display_name was None and should have been a string.

Thanks!
