Hi,

I have trouble customising my Finder toolbars on Big Sur. All the icons are aligned to the right part of the window (not very ergonomic on a 27" screen) and if I try to insert a flexible space it simply doesn't do anything...

I'm I the only one?

I saw a trick to revert to the old layout and the flexible space actually works fine that way, but I want to keep the new layout.


Thanks

Windows that uses the unified toolbar will have the toolbar items aligned to the right, to make space for the window title to the left, it's how it's meant to work.

After I installed Big Sur, I think the toolbar items were left justified, but then I did something that caused them to be right justified. Is there any way to go back to left justification? I'm not sure why the system has to leave so much space for the window title. I find that if I remove the back/forward arrows, then the different views revert to 4 icons from a drop-down menu.
