Mac Forum / Applications / Word / December 2006Expanding toolbars horizontally possible?
Hello all: I've looked through the newsgroup and don't see this addressed, unless I've missed it. The problem is that my displayed toolbars don't expand to show all buttons and don't expand to the width of the window, regardless of how many buttons are shown. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks. Hi Bruce: Yes: Drag them. I know: You've tried it before, lotsa times :-) Try it again :-) This one caught me too. First make sure the toolbar in question is correctly docked, then drag its bottom right corner. To dock a toolbar, drag it by its top left corner down the screen, then slowly drag it up to the left until it snaps into place.

They aren't really buttons and you can't expand the bar to display them. If you want them added to the bar you need to go to Tools>Customize>Customize Menus & Toolbars and add them from the Commands page there. If you add a command that is in the drop-down menu it will appear on the bar as a button & removed from the menu at the same time - IOW, it won't be in the menu any longer once you add it as an actual button. As far as the width of your toolbar relative to window size, there is no correlation - the max length of any bar is determined by the controls it contains. The bars don't scale up/down based on window size, they remain constant regardless of the width of a window.
