Did you know... you can make a toolbar floating? - #136

First, you'll want to put the mouse over the grip control.  You'll notice that the mouse control changes to a 4-directional pointer.

Then hold the primary mouse button down and drag the toolbar out.  It'll pop out into a floating state, as illustrated below.  You can also resize in a way similar to a table.

Can you dock a tool bar to side or bottom. (You know in the same way you can dock Tool Box, Server Exployer, and Solution Exployer,etc)

If not making tool bars position atheist would be a great feature for Rasario.

まず、グリップ コントロールの上にマウスを置いてください。マウス コントロールが 4 方向矢印のポインタに変化することがおわかりでしょう。 次に、左マウス ボタンを押したまま、ツール バーをドラッグして外に移動します。すると、次のように、ウィンドウから切り離されてフローティング状態になります。テーブル同様、サイズを変更することもできます。
