TOOLBAR EDITOR

Styles and grids coming in next update v2.2.0!

Getting Started

Explore the editor suite—Tooltips explain all the buttons and settings.

• Turn on edit mode ( Bottom-left Corner📝)
• Use + / - to add new toolbar sections.
• Shift + Left-click Drag & Drops Buttons around.
• Controls can be changed in layout tab.

For a simple layout

Keep Auto-Shift 🔁 on, and the toolbar sections will adjust automatically as you move buttons and add/remove sections. Recolor any menu button in the buttons tab

To build a complex custom layout

Disable auto shift 🔁 in the bottom footer (or layout tab) to gain access to resize controls, custom vertical sections and more. Connected sections will no longer auto-adjust while auto shift is off, so they can be placed anywhere and remained fixed.

SAVING THE TOOLBAR

Toolbars are linked to your game saves. Saving or auto-saving will keep your current changes.

Toolbar profiles let you save your creations and load them again later or port them to other saves.


You can do the majority of your toolbar editing using this controller. While each editor tab provides more detailed tooltips and some additional options, like button colors, section renaming, specific section restoration and layout factory resets.

image.pngClicking components selects them for adjustments while the controller is open.

Controller buttons

• Micro-adjustments: Left-click moves by 1 pixel, right-click moves by 10 pixels.
• Horizontal and Vertical section orientation ⬇️⬆️
• Adjust Border edges to fit the side of the screen.
• Overlay controls which components appear on top of others.
• Set exact X & Y Coordinates.
• Increasing Columns or Rows on vertical or horizontal sections create a button-grid

A property will be dulled/muted if that component does not support it.

  • Toggle Edit-Mode
  • Independent Background Movement (optionally move sections with the background)
  • Auto-Shift (to restore auto-shift behavior use resets)
  • Dragable-box Highlights
  • Open Tweaks++ HUD tab
  • Lock/Unlock Tweaks++ HUDS.
  • Add or remove sections
  • Magnify-All shows all section names on screen to find the one you're looking for.

RESET TO DEFAULT

Use the reset buttons in layout tab to start over. Restore auto shift to keep custom button colors, orders and section changes, but restore the default-looking one-bar layout and auto-shifting behaviors.

Editor Settings

Disable profile reminders, tooltips, customize toolbar editor's icon-style or switch between game-languages.

Changelog
[MAJOR FEATURES]
* Build your own toolbar layout with multi-row sections, vertical columns, independent scales, and custom button groups.
* Give your toolbar a new look with Native, Dark, Light, or Clear backgrounds, directional corner shapes, and optional borders.
* Try quick Dark/Light themes or rebuild into a one-row layout with separate mod buttons or a two-row layout.
* Snap sections, Search, and the Edit/Selection Mode indicators together, then move touching pieces as a group.
* Find and edit components through a redesigned Controller and contextual Components tab.
* Configure left- and right-click editing actions independently in one modifier table.
* Widen the editor for more working room, with controls that make use of the extra space.

[GRIDS & APPEARANCE]
* Arrange toolbar sections into multiple rows or columns, with separate settings for horizontal and vertical layouts.
* Choose 1–32 columns for the green Tool shortcuts grid, and scale individual sections independently with Auto-Shift off.
* Customize sections, the toolbar background, and Toolbar Search with rounded, square, screen-edge, or individual-corner shapes.
* Toggle Dark/Light borders independently from the background and shape.
* Apply style, shape, and border choices across all sections from one compact row.

[PRESETS & PROFILES]
* Choose Dark mode or Light mode, with or without borders, from a compact preset grid.
* Style presets keep your layout and buttons; both green shortcut groups get matching backgrounds and bottom-left corner shapes.
* Full-layout presets reset the layout and group currently detected mod buttons into their own section.
* Every preset offers Review & save, Apply without saving, or Cancel, with confirmation near the preset button.
* Review & save takes you to the active profile instead of a stale selection; unnamed layouts start with a blank save name.
* Presets no longer create automatic backup profiles, and become clickable again when a load, reset, or rebuild finishes.

[CONTROLLER & EDITOR]
* Reorganizes the Controller into compact, aligned rows with clearer hover feedback and a labeled orientation button.
* Places the selected-component dropdown before a smaller component Search field.
* Type exact scale values and X/Y coordinates; press Enter to apply them.
* Right-click changes rows, columns, and scale by 5; Shift + right-click changes them by 10. Movement arrows use 1, 10, or 25 pixels.
* Replaces Sections with a contextual Components tab for appearance, position, scale, wrapping, layer, rename, reset, and hidden-section recovery.
* Adds Buttons search with right-click clearing, plus Enter support for section names and color hex values.
* Resizes the editor horizontally from 640–1100 pixels, with visible side grips and more useful space for text controls. Horizontal resizing is on by default.
* Adds a title-bar expand/collapse control for the current tab and keeps the optional Buttons-settings shortcut nearby.
* Moves editing Controls into Settings, with Defaults, compact hover help, and a shortcut to the game's Mod keybind settings.

[SNAPPING, CONTROLS & FIXES]
* Ordinary dragging moves one piece; Move snapped group carries touching sections, Search, and mode indicators together.
* Shows clear active indicators for snapping and screen-edge protection, with an optional off-screen placement allowance.
* Keeps sections and Search in place when moving or resizing the background independently.
* Unassigned editing controls stay unassigned after restarting. Moving an action to another modifier no longer swaps the old assignment.
* Protects the right-click layering shortcut from conflicting assignments.
* Keeps drag gestures from sticking when modifier keys are released before the mouse button.
* Adds a save-reminder preference directly to the unsaved-changes prompt.
* Improves saved-position recovery, component resets, Auto-Shift safeguards, and menu refreshes.
* Fixes title-bar spacing, icon centering, modifier-label wrapping, scale-slider sizing, and the Style-row jump when selecting No border.

[LANGUAGE SUPPORT]
* Choose the editor language independently from the game, or follow the game's language automatically.
* Translates the Controller, component names, presets, help, and prompts across all 21 supported languages, with wider layouts for longer text.

v2.1.9 | 2026-09-24

* Verified for Captain of Industry v0.8.7d.

v2.1.8 | 2026-09-14

[FULL LANGUAGE SUPPORT]
* Completes Toolbar Editor translations across all 21 Captain of Industry languages, adding Turkish and Traditional Chinese support.
* Translates the remaining English text throughout the normal editor tabs, prompts, status messages, tooltips, profiles, layout indicators, and keybind descriptions.
* Fine-Tune Controller labels and buttons remain fixed in English to protect its compact layout, while its tooltips and confirmation prompts are translated.

v2.1.7 | 2026-09-12

* Verified for Captain of Industry v0.8.7c.

* Editing Controls are now reconfigurable in Layout tab's Controls section.
* Resizing vertically and horizontally is now one shared resize control.
* Moving a green Tool shortcut into a regular horizontal toolbar section now resizes it's icon to match the icon size of those sections; if you've done this in your profiles, minor adjustments may be needed.
* Toolbar Editor's icon now defaults to section -1 and adjusted it's size as well.
* Started partial translations with English fallback. Full Translation work coming in next update.
=================
AUTO SHIFT REWORK
=================
* Reworked Auto-Shift to be easier to use for simple one-row toolbar layouts to guard against behaviors that would otherwise cause layout bugs with default toolbar resizing behavior; as a result, resizing the background and vertical section orientation switching is disabled while auto shift is on.
* Disabling Auto-Shift for a profile unlocks all editing controls and freezes toolbar geometry so all auto shifting behavior immediately stops without needing to resize the background anymore.
* Added new restore button in Layout tab's Resets to restore a working auto-shift layout & behaviors while keeping your custom button assignments and sections in tact.
* Reset all sections now preserves custom section names and button assignments while aligning the sections back to the background's current position; the full layout reset still restores the complete default toolbar and all changes to factory default.

* Fixed a bug where draging a component could get stuck to your mouse while Selection mode was active.
* Selection mode is now always active when the controller tray is open and editing in on.
* Replaced Selection mode toggle with optional "Mute Clicks" toggle that disables left clicks from performing their normal actions while editing, if needed.

* Ton of bug-fixing across many internal versions since the last release. If you encounter any new bugs please report them.

v2.1.6 | 2026-09-07

* Resized toolbar editor's icon so it stops causing sections to grow larger for existing in them.
* Removed some Toolbar Editor icon choices to reduce total file size.

[Continued Profile Restoration Bug-Fixing]

* Addressed a bug from v.2.1.5's negative section rework that caused Resetting all sections button to throw sections to extreme negative coordinates.
* Addressed a bug where switching to lower game scales could cause the submenu to shake between two sets of fractional coordinates.
* Addressed bug where the submenu could shift downard the size of a horizontal scrollbar after loading game or profile.
* Submenu restoration now preserves a centered width and bottom anchor, and remembers exact manual resizing and positioning so it naturally grows upward instead of shifting it's Y-coordinate downwards.

v2.1.5 | 2026-09-02

* Adds full editing, button-management, and profile support for the To-do list and other toolbar buttons added to negative sections of the toolbar.
* Removing sections with Hidden buttons in it should no longer cause shifting when toggling edit mode.
* All Empty sections now properly collapse when leaving edit-mode. This collapse considers your auto-shift settings.
* Lets you restore toolbar sections you previously removed, including the green Tool shortcuts sections; use Restore section in the section tab.
* optional Review & save reminder will now expand editor just enough to reveal the save profile button, if applicable.

Many changes were done for layout reconstruction and profile loading this update. PLEASE REPORT if your toolbar does not restore perfectly or behave as expected.
Note: switching game scales or resolution does require a new profile.

v2.1.4 | 2026-09-01

[OVERLAY & PROFILE RESTORING BUG-FIX]
* Fixes complex section Overlay orders not consistently restoring after loading a profile or game.
* Saves each customized section's exact position in the native toolbar hierarchy, allowing sections intentionally placed behind the toolbar background to restore correctly.
* Restores Overlay order for both green Tool shortcuts sections as well as standard and custom sections.
* Prevents newly registered mod toolbar controls from interrupting an unfinished saved-layout restoration.

v2.1.3 | 2026-08-31

[CUSTOM TOOL BUTTONS]
* Finds mod-added buttons placed directly in the green Tool shortcuts grid, including Cheat++'s underground-network button.
* Adds these buttons to drag-and-drop editing, the Buttons tab, coloring, visibility, and profile save/load while keeping their original click action and tooltip.

v2.1.2 | 2026-08-31

[EDITOR WINDOW HEIGHT]
* The three window-size buttons have been reworked.
* The middle button restores your manually resized window height; you can manually resize the window from 100–1000 pixels.
* Manually resize it to only 100 pixels to show only the controller and title bar.
* The minimize preset provides a comfortable size for editing and saving profiles.
* The maximize preset makes the window large enough to work comfortably in any of the five tabs.

[EDITING]
* Dragging and dropping buttons into the vertical green Tool shortcuts section now shows the correct drop-position indicator.
* Shows the selected component's current overlay layer number.
* Adds separate Reset Submenu panel parent and Reset Submenu panel children actions to the Layout tab.

[MENU CHANGES]
* The Fine-Tune Controller now has persistent top and bottom lips; either lip can open or close the expandable controller section.
* Adds a gold plus/minus control to the Buttons tab for opening or closing all button sections at once.
* Recolors the controller frame and footer.

v2.1.1b | 2026-08-30

[CRITICAL DROPDOWN HOTFIX]
* Fixes Toolbar Editor preventing unrelated game and mod dropdowns from opening, including the train Network selector.
* Removes Toolbar Editor's generic game-wide dropdown interception entirely and attaches popup scaling only to the four dropdowns owned by the editor.

v2.1.1 | 2026-08-29

* Verified for Captain of Industry v0.8.7b.

[NEW COMPONENT CONTROLS]
* Adds movement, scaling, reset, Identify, and profile recall for the following:
* Tool filters and controls, shown when placing buildings or using copy and unity tools.
* Temporary Toolbox shortcut controls, shown while using transport, Blueprint, and other tools.
* Belts & pipes snapping indicator.
* Planning Mode indicator.
* Toolbar Edit Mode and Toolbar Selection Mode banners.
* Overlays (Layers) panel.
* Expands the footer's Identify-All to now identify all visible toolbar components, not only sections.

[EDITOR CHANGES]
* The Editor's now allows manual vertical resizing down to an ultra-compact 100-pixel when resizing using the bottom drag handle.
* The Editor's titlebar minimize button brings it to conservative 480-pixel height, to still show profile save/load buttons.
* Saving a profile now also shows the game scale % that was used when the profile was saved, as a reminder.
* Profiles technically load as intended when switching to different game scales, but complex toolbar layouts could still result in gaps due to a smaller button container size— So if you switch game scales, you will probably need to adjust or create a new profile for that scale.

v2.1.0 | 2026-08-27

* Performance Optimizations while editing & for Editor menu.
* Stops routine editor updates from repeatedly scanning the profiles folder. Use the Profiles tab’s Refresh button after adding, removing, or renaming profile files outside the game.
* Replaces Fine Tune’s selected-component text field with a dropdown, making every registered component selectable even when it is off-screen or difficult to click.
* Adds movement, scaling, reset, and Identify support for the Planning Mode indicator, Edit Mode banner, Selection Mode banner, and Overlays panel.
* Fixes Reset All Toolbar Layout so it also restores the six yellow toolbar sections.
* Reduces the editor’s minimized height to 250 pixels for working with only the fine-tune controller.
* Adds an optional Calendar Buttons shortcut after the existing Tweaks++ open and lock controls.
