I have several add-ons in the bottom add-on toolbar in firefox 4. I would like to arrange them in a specific order and have them justify to the right side of the browser. Currently they are on the left side of the add-on bar.

When you're in the Toolbar Customize mode there's a large Flexible Space in the Add-on Bar, move all the Add-on icons to the right-side of that white Flexible Space and into the order that you want them. If any of those icons are enclosed together by a light rectangle, those are older Statusbar icons which can't be manually re-ordered and will be moved together as one group - the bad thing about Mozilla "grandfathering" the old Statusbar icons.

Click the Status-4-Evar button and play around with the settings.

Otherwise, contact the developer for assistance.

I'm not using the Status-4-Evar add-on. It's just the default add-on bar that shows up on the bottom of firefox if you have add-ons that dock there.

Thank you, the Flexible Space is exactly what I needed to move everything over to the right. Unfortunately they are all one group, but I just deleted and re-uploaded them to force them into the order I wanted. Thank you for the help!
