Adding items to the tool bar

I tried repeatedly to add a close all icon next to the command window without success. When I opened up L4 on my Win box it was easy and it then appeared on my L4M. Is this something still in development for L4M

    What method(s) did you try?

    s this something still in development for L4M

    Using the stable release, which I assume you are as you are posting in this forum, I was able to click and drag on an item and place it next to the 'Command' entry window. I already have 'close all there' so chose, almost at random, 'Favourites' to drag there. Worked first time.

    I typed it in command and tried dragging it. Might have been me being a clutz but it was rather frustrating. I have some physical issues (one of the reasons I love Logos) I think I got it the second or third try in L4.

    Actually I don't think it is you. I went back a second time and tried dragging various things to the bar. Dragging 'Search' worked every time, dragging NIV tab never worked, dragging items from the drop down menu worked infrequently.

    I think the random nature of the responses may be a function of the developers aims to give us hope but not certainty.  :-)

    Our hope is in the Lord, but I'm remaining hopeful this is somewhere in the development plan. No big deal to fire up L4 to get it done but it will be nice to see in the future. I am sure they hard at work making this better.

    There is a known bug that items in the "Tools" section of the Command Bar can't be dragged. I know this was in 4.2a beta and probably exists in 4.0b SR-2. I've fixed this in the latest Mac beta due out in the next day or so.
