Query re Actions Toolbar

johngross · 10-06-2019, 11:05 PM

I am using Calibre 1.48 on a old laptop running Win XP with a 1024x768 screen.

This means that every time I want to edit an ebook - which is quite often - I have to click on the >> button at the right of the toolbar, then carefully move the cursor to the edit button on the second line.

Is it by any chance possible for me delete a button on the main top toolbar line, so that the edit button would appear on the top line?

Or, can I re-order the position of the buttons on the toolbar?

Or, can I make the toolbar wider - top to bottom, that is - so that both lines of the toolbar will always be visible?

I have not been able to find a way to do any of these using the Preferences.

Am I just stupid? Or could someone suggest something I'm missing?

I'm sorry, I AM stupid!

I discovered how to do what I wanted about five minutes after submitting my query.

You could just use the Keyboard shortcut: 'T'
T, E, and V are the ones I frequently use (to select actions)
