One small trick is to put a 'separator' on the far right of the toolbar -
you should then be able to move buttons to the far right and they will be
inserted before the 'separator' - if you don't want the separator you can
delete it when you've finished.

Subject: Attachmate Extra! Toolbar editor - Usage assistance

Is there someone familiar with the idiosyncrasies of the Attachmate Extra!
toolbar editor. 
I am working with version 6.71.
 
The editor does not seem to work as stated when I attempt to work with many
of the toolbars I've tried to modify or create. Specifically, if I want to
move a button around it simply does not move to where I move it too. Most of
the time is jumps back to where it started or other times overlays another
button.  The HELP seems of no assistance as it simply says to move the
buttons where you would like using the mouse and let it go where you like.
Also... on changing the size of a button, HELP states to do this using the
corner connectors and the mouse but this does nothing. I'm assuming the
editor has some issues so I was hoping someone out there had some inside
tricks or work arounds in working with this toolbar editor.
FYI - I've scowered Attachmate's Support site but to no avail.
 
Thanks

Like a lot of Attachmate settings editors the Toolbar editor is a bit
esoteric !!

A.F.A.I.K. you cannot place a button past the last button on the right-hand
side of the toolbar, you have to 'shuffle things about' to get a button to
the far right. You cannot resize a button despite what the Help says, and
you can only extend a toolbar to the right, not downwards. 'Large buttons'
are 'display only'.
