UP, UP, AND AWAY WITH THE QUICK LAUNCH TOOLBAR

Do you have so many shortcuts on your Quick Launch toolbar that they aren't all visible at once? Tired of scrolling left or right to get to them all? For one-click access to all Quick Launch shortcuts, turn this toolbar into a floating palette.

See the vertical bar on the left edge of the Quick Launch toolbar? Click it, drag the entire toolbar to a new location on your desktop, and let go. And no, you aren't stuck with that huge resulting window. Resize it as you would any window--hold your mouse pointer over any corner and when it changes to a double-pointed arrow, click and drag in either direction. Move the palette to any location on screen, and you have one-click access to all shortcuts inside.

(Tip-in-a-tip: If you want to make sure your Quick Launch palette doesn't get buried by other windows, right-click its title bar and select Always On Top.)

Want your toolbar back? We'll show you how to return it to the Taskbar in our next tip....
