It stopped working after 4.3. I am in the process of fixing this.
Your support through [GitHub Sponsors](https://github.com/sponsors/pluglug) helps me to work on this and other features.

PME allows you to use the *User Preferences* area as a toolbar when its width or height is minimal:

## Naming

Toolbars display popup dialog's layout depending on its name:

```text
Toolbar <Screen Name> <Position>
```

Where *Screen Name* and *Position* are optional and *Position* takes one of these values: *Left*, *Right*, *Top*, *Bottom*.

## Examples

| Example | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `Toolbar Top` | Top toolbar, all screens |
| `Toolbar UV Editing Right` | Right toolbar, *UV Editing* screen |
| `Toolbar 3D View Full` | Any toolbar, *3D View Full* screen |

## Saving

Toolbar widgets are stored in *User Preferences*. The position and size of the toolbars are stored in *.blend* files. So in order to save your toolbars, you need to use both {menuselection}`File --> User Preferences --> Save User Settings` and {menuselection}`File --> Save Startup File` commands.

By default Blender loads UI stored in *.blend* files. To keep the current UI (including toolbars) you need to uncheck *Load UI* option:
