Some Delphi IDE versions have an annoying bug with the toolbars that makes them unusable if you customize them.
If you have seen this problem, you know it, if not, congratulations! Unfortunately I am one of the people who experience this problem and it annoyed me so much, that I added a workaround to GExperts. The new IDE Toolbar Expert adds a toolbar to the IDE which can be moved around as any of the built in toolbars, but not moved into a tool window.
It gets configured in the same way as the existing Editor Window Toolbar, in fact it uses the same dialog. That means you can add buttons for any action to it, that is registered in the IDE, which includes actions registered by add-ons like GExperts.
The expert is disabled by default, so in order to use it, you must first enable it in the GExperts configuration dialog.
I have now configured this toolbar with all the buttons I use and have closed all the built in toolbars of the IDE.
There is no GExperts release with this feature yet, so in order to get it, you will have to compile your own DLL (which is far from rocket science, just try it).
