So I don't lurk here too much, and a search on "address" brought up no relevant results, but somewhere between version 7 & 8 the address bar relocated itself to the left 2/3s of the program.
All the shortcut icons for forward, back, up, cut, paste, view, etc are to the right 1/3 of the screen, after the huge address bar.
Is there a way to get this back to how it used to be? I don't remember exactly, but they were definitely much more towards the left, if not before the address bar. I found them much more accessible to the left.
Thanks!
Repositioning the Address Bar
Re: Repositioning the Address Bar
There are four layouts available to you, they are located under main menu Window -> Layout.
They are:
[Address Bar & Toolbar] - Address bar and Toolbar on the same row with address bar on the left.
[Toolbar & Address Bar] - Address bar and Toolbar on the same row but with the address bar on the right.
[Address Bar][Toolbar] - Address bar on the top row. Toolbar on the bottom row.
[Toolbar][Address Bar] - Toolbar on the top row. Address bar on the bottom row.
There use to be a few other layouts, but they conflicted with the new dual pane features and were removed leading up to version 8.0.

Perfect, thanks. If I only looked a little, it was right in front of me.
Ideally, a drag and drop interface like in most web browsers would be nice, I tried that, and I tried going to "Customize Toolbar" before too, but no options there.
I was just lazy though, I can't complain. Really love this program!

Re: Repositioning the Address Bar
I believe I recall some discussion in another thread about making a bit of the prior look/layout more available for those who wanted it, but not sure to what extent and/or when/if.ender_01 wrote:Is there a way to get this back to how it used to be?
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!

+1! Especially when CTBs are part of XY, I'd like to be able to define placeholders, into which I'll D n' D things like toolbar buttons, AB, tabs and CTBs.ender_01 wrote:Ideally, a drag and drop interface like in most web browsers would be nice...
