    Default Add a Toolbar?

    Hi, Is there a way to add an additional toolbar where I could move my extensions to, or as an alternative add a status bar on the bottom of the screen for the same purpose? Every time I add an extension the address window gets a little bit shorter, so I'm looking for a place to move the extensions to. I see you can't drag them any where.

    In the Developer Version you can rearrange them and choose which ones to show.

    In terms of another bar though, not yet.
    Quite a while ago the devs mentioned a side bar for extensions you'd be able to move to either side of the screen, or on the top or bottom. I don't know if it was scrapped or not but maybe they're put browser actions in it.

    I think there's eventually a drop-down of additional extensions once you get too many browser actions, so at least there's that for now.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Attached are 2 screenshots of the extensions in a dropbox. (requires: Chrome 5.0.322.2 dev)
    You will also notice you can decide the number of extensions displayed.
    And you can also reorganise the extensions so that YOU decide witch extensions are shown and witch extensions are in the dropbox.
    In my examples that would be 7 extensions in the first attachment and only 3 in the second attachment.
    This is done by moving the separator icon to the right.
