Vista toolbar drawer?

[Crytel]

I would really love to have all of my Adobe CS4 stuff easily accessible through the toolbar but don't want to add even more clutter and take up more room then I already have taken up, something like a slide up drawer would be excellent but I have been unable to see if there is a way of adding this to my system. Currently the best solution I have come up with is adding a folder to a toolbar and having links inside that to all my needed CS4 stuff, this isn't to awful but it takes an extra click to open an app then I would like.

I assume you mean that you're adding a folder to your quicklaunch bar. You can add a different kind of toolbar to your taskbar by right clicking it and picking Toolbars:New Toolbar. If you select My Computer: Documents and Settings: Your_Profile_Name: Start Menu: and then navigate to your CS4 folder then you will get a little title with a >> symbol next to it that will expand with your links there. This is similar to the drawer model that you are probably used to from graphics applications. Note that your CS4 start menu folder might be under "All users" instead of your own profile, depending on how it was installed. You can use any folder that you want, I've just put together an example where it is just pulling the "start menu" items from my profile. If you're the kind of person who uses items from your desktop a lot, and you have applications maximized or covering everything, using a "desktop" toolbar can be great.

Is this suggestion in line with what you're attempting to do?
