Hi Stew,

The intent in the future is to have an font effects split/group button that
would have all the different font effect commands in it, so embossed and
engraved would be in the drop down as well (attachment 103420).

Once created, it would be hidden in the formatting toolbar for users to enable
it if they wish until the split/group button is created.

The Visible Buttons menu has one major problem with it, it disappears after you
enable/disable a single button (bug 85786). With this major problem, i always
go into Customize Toolbar... if i need to enable/disable more than one button.
Once that is solved, using the submenu would be simple to use.

At my laptop's screen resolution of 1280x768, the 4.3 releases Visible Buttons
menu is larger than the height of the screen.

Many of these hidden entries will be going away once split/group buttons are
created for them. I was hoping that it would have made it into 4.4, as they are
part of my toolbar proposal (bug 81475), but that isnt likely. There are
buttons that i've hidden as part of the proposal, and am awaiting the reaction
from the public on the current changes in order to eliminate them from the
toolbar.

You can use the scrollwheel to cycle up and down. :D
