How do I move the quick actions toolbar in Acrobat Pro 2022.003.20281 on a Mac?

I'm using Acrobat Pro 2022.003.20281 on a Mac OS 12.5. In past versions I could dock the Quick Actions Toolbar to the top of the window, but in this version of Acrobat, it hovers in the upper left, sometimes covering art that I need to see when zooming in. Is there a way to dock it so it isn't hovering, or at least temporarily hide it? The attached image shows how it is "floating" above the window. I need it to not float so it doesn't cover my PDF workspace. Thanks!

Hi All,

 

Hope you are doing well. 

 

We appreciate your valuable feedback! We're always looking for ways to improve Acrobat, and we appreciate the time and effort you have taken to share your thoughts with us.

 

We acknowledge that the new Acrobat represents a notable change; however, we hope that as you get familiar with the new interface, you can be more productive and get more out of Acrobat.

 

We are actively working on all the currently unavailable features, such as moving, hiding, or re-s

It would make more sense to dock the quick action toolbar in the pages/navigation sidebar on the right side.

 

I've removed as many quick tools as possible to reduce the size of the quick action toolbar, but 6 tools have been selected as default and can't be removed.

I agree. I'm looking at an agenda and double checking times. The toolbar blocks the first time listed so I have no idea if the time listed is corrected. Adobe, this is a major issue, please fix it!

I am withdrawing my subscription from Adobe PRO and moving to Foxit. It is incredibly annoying that they cannot fix this simple thing in months.

Agreed, it would be great to be able to move/remove/add tools in Adobe. Being able to remove the Quick Actions is a start, but I also think it'd be better if users could place tools on the top toolbar like in previous editions (and in almost every other MS Office product). Users would likely feel more comfortbale using your product if they could arrange their editing workspace in a way that suits them - not being forced to view things the way Adobe demands.

Thank you so much! I could get used to the tool being on the left instead of the right, but having that floating toolbar covering my document when I zoom in is just plain stupid.

Thank you very much for the solution. Long term though, can we never enjoy the new UI design because of this toolbar? I would rather not be stuck in the old UI forever. A great temporary solution but is this going to get fixed?

Thank you!  I appreciate your advice and it worked.  I prefer the old version.  They should update the apps with new features, but leave the view alone.
