I use customization to add several icons to the Navigation Bar. While the customization window is open they all are seen on the Navigation Bar. When I click Done some of them disappear. You can see the problem in these two pictures. http://s179350112.onlinehome.us/IconsShowing.jpg http://s179350112.onlinehome.us/IconsMissing.jpg The missing icons to not appear anywhere on the Navigation Bar, such as on the other end.

You need to hide the menu bar if you want the Bookmarks Menu button with the drop marker to appear on a toolbar.
If you want the Bookmarks button to open the bookmarks in the sidebar then you need the Bookmarks button without the drop marker that you can see in the first screenshot on the second row.

The reload and stop icon are combined to one icon under specific conditions.

  • Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
  • Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise (Space or Separator) to get two distinct buttons.

You will only see the Bookmarks Menu button if the Menu bar with the Bookmarks menu is not displayed (View > Toolbars) because this button is provided as a replacement of the menu item.

The order of refresh/stop works. Thanks for that info.

However, the problem still exists. Customize shows Home and Bookmarks icons. http://s179350112.onlinehome.us/Customize.jpg

Results shows no sidebar, no Bookmarks icon. http://s179350112.onlinehome.us/Results.jpg
