On my windows PC in my office, my chrome extensions are all along the toolbar as they always have been, however on my ubuntu machine at home they are now in a dropdown next to the spanner icon. It's a bit annoying as I can't see when I have new mail, tweets etc.

Chrome version 7.0.517.44

If anyone knows how to resolve this it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Drew

You can show all your extensions:

  • Take your mouse to the right end url bar.
  • Arrow will turn double-headed.
  • Drag it to the left.
  • You may drag extensions as you wish too

Put your mouse inside the red "circle" indicated in the image below, and then click-and-drag left or right.

Red ellipse indicates the target.

Your cursor should turn into a <=||=> icon when you are there.

It might have been better if the UI designers had faded a drag widget into view when you put your pointer there. Although I still wouldn't have found it without help... :P

They could also have put a widget there "permanently", and then made it disappear once the user has played with it a few times.
