Now I see your toolbars... many toolbars Confusedhock:

As I understand you want to see all items on the toolbars but make the toolbars more narrow. Is this right?

Unfortunately TLB cannot to control its width. TLB just report the minimum width and Windows decide how to arrange the toolbars. So you can try to reduce the minimum toolbar width. On the attached screenshot (toolbar1.jpg). You can see the toolbars Programs, debug2 and launchbar are smaller then the toolbar "True Launch Bar". I've changed the option TLB Settings->Metrics->"Max width of buttons with text"->Small buttons into 100. It is very important to change this value for all toolbars in the row to get the same effect.

So the changing this option you can make your toolbars more narrow.

Other option that can control th width of the toolbar: TLB Settings->Toolbar->Sizing step This option specifies the minimum size the toolbar width can be changed. On the screenshot toolbar2.jpg I've set the Sizing step for toolbar "launchbar" into 100. When I resize the toolbar I get the two buttons rows in the left toolbars and I can to reduce the width of the right toolbar only.

So using these two options you can create the configuration you want.

PS. I know this is your choice how to use the toolbars but maybe it will be better to use the menus instead the toolbars? One button will show all items you have on separate toolbar now. You can tear off the menu if want the menu stay opened after running something. Multicolumn menus will always show all items. And it is much easy to configure menus then the toolbars.
