Use Preferences Toolbar Style for the Settings Window #1353

The settings window uses a toolbar style that isn’t recommended by Apple’s HIG.

The common style designed for settings is the NSWindowToolbarStylePreference (more at this WWDC video).

Also a bit cumbersome is the fact that the window size changes so much between the different panes. That leads to the issue that you have to recalibrate your cursor every time. Other apps like Safari or Mail use the same width for all panes and center the content inside the window.

Rectangle.Settings.mp4

macOS version: 14.3.1
Rectangle version: 0.76 (82)

Thanks for reporting. I agree, I've always been annoyed by the resizing mechanism here. I don't have the bandwidth to update this at the moment, but would welcome a good pull request that fixes this and makes the window adhere to current guidelines.
