Dear list,

I'm somewhat confused about the proper way to distribute application updates 
when it comes to the toolbar in the app. The app has a toolbar with is 
configurable, which (I believe) means that the configuration of the toolbar is 
stored in the user's application defaults under 
~/Library/Preferences/com.mystuff.myapp.plist. 

Now, if I issue a new version of the application with a new feature that comes 
with a new toolbar button, this button doesn't appear when the new version is 
launched. In some way this makes sense, but in another way it doesn't. 

Is there a recommended way to handle this situation? Should I just tell the 
user that they should edit the toolbar to add the new button? Can I do 
something programatically to add the new button? Advice is very much welcome.

Best wishes,

Martin
