Quickly arrange icons on your toolbars

This is a trick I learnt a few years ago in Office (don't remember exactly if was 97 or 2000 smile_thinking) since I like to customize my working environment "in my way" (like everyone else, I guess smile_wink), but I don't like to waste time digging into menus, config files etc if possible...

It's easy: hold the ALT key and simply...:

  • Drag the button to move it in the position you like, also in a different toolbar
  • Slightly drag the button to the right to insert a vertical separator on the left of the icon you are touching
  • Slightly drag the button on the left to insert a vertical separator on the right of the icon you are touching
  • Drag the button down (outside the toolbar) to remove it

arrance icons

Of course this works only for icons and button you already have on the toolbar, if you need to add a new one you must do it the usual way (right click on the toolbar and chose the "Customize" command). Oh, this does not work with the Ribbon in Office 2007.
