The toolbar is displayed above the ***Ribbon***, but you can reposition it below the ribbon by right-clicking it and selecting ***Below***.

Commands in the ***Ribbon*** can be added to the ***Quick access toolbar*** for faster access. You can add individual commands or entire sections of a ribbon tab by right-clicking them and selecting ***Add***. For example, you can add the ***Copy password*** command or the entire ***Clipboard*** section from the ***Home*** tab.

To remove an item, right-click it in the toolbar and select ***Remove***.

* ***Add entry***: Create a new entry in the current workspace.

* ***Refresh***: Refresh the workspace.
* ***Search***: Open a search bar to filter entries, tabs, vaults, and workspaces.
