With Ultrawide and even Super-Ultrawide monitors becoming more and more common, having the address bar take up the entire width of XYplorer is wasteful:
The vast majority of the time, any text input or paths shown in the address bar use only a small percentage of its width (C:\Temp\temp here), and also if the toolbar could be combined (as a preference) with the address bar, then you recover the vertical space previously used by the toolbar. That could mean showing an extra line or two of details without scrolling.
Don, I searched but can't find a comment you made, that I thought I remembered reading long ago, something like "making the toolbar dockable/dragable/floating" was too difficult or not possible. But, even so, could
something like the above get done without floating, as a preference or tweak/option?
I've created a mock-up to help illustrate this wish idea:

Re: Combine toolbar with address bar
great! Thank you! The only thing to improve this is it appears they are sized to split 50/50? Can their sizes (widths) be changed?
Edit: IOW if I have the address bar first, could I "shrink it" some?
