Where is the Toolbar in OS X Lion?

3

since the Lion update, every toolbar is missing.

For example:

  • Word 2011
  • Adium
  • Finder

In Snow Leopard it was possible to click on an little button in right up corner. But it's not visible anymore.

In Word 2011, I can make it visible with the CMD+ALT+T shortcurt. But the Button is already missing in every program.

In Mac OS X Lion, the toolbar can be hidden and shown from the View menu.

You can also right-click the title bar of a window to find a "Hide Toolbar" option, if you'd prefer to do it with the mouse.

is there no button anymore? – Phil – 2011-08-18T20:23:00.753

Nope, the toolbar pill button was probably user-tested to show that most people never noticed it, and so it has been replaced with the fullscreen button on apps that support it. – NReilingh – 2011-08-18T23:15:46.607
