<![CDATA[Why are the sidebar icons at the bottom?]]>I've just 'upgraded' to Opera One and am surprised to see the Bookmarks, History etc. icons right at the bottom of the sidebar. On my big monitor they are at least 32cm away from the address bar when they used to be about 4cm away with my previous version. Is there a way to move them to the top of the sidebar? If not, what's the best way to 'downgrade' to a version that has the icons in a more sensible place without losing my extensions as happened when I upgraded? Thanks in advance.

@redstart Did you try enabling the other sidebar sections?

I'm bemused by this response. Why would enabling the other sidebar sections have any relevance to my question about the default icons being placed in the most inaccessible place possible? Enabling the other sections simply reinforces the issue! My Bookmarks and History are actually more important than anything else for me and most other users. For sure, others might use networking icons more than me (I don't use them at all) but I really don't understand why core functions of a browser have been relegated to such an inaccessible place when it was just fine before. It's simply illogical!

I am amazed that such a user-unfriendly bit of design managed to make it to a production version of the browser. I should at least be able to drag the icons to where suits me best.
