I just finished looking at the new ActivTips (love them) and I was adding "Firefox" to my toolstrip, everytime I tried I got the following message : "tray must be visible"

:confused:

Hiya!

In order to add a shortcut to Firefox, you must add it to your User-Defined toolstrip. To do this:

On your toolbox, you will notice two small triangles. The first toggles your main toolbox. The second toggles your User-Defined toolstrip.

1) Toggle your User-Defined toolstrip (second little triangle).

2) Open up your Toolstore.

3) Drag a "User Defined" button to your User-Defined toolstrip.

4) Right-click your new button and you will see a new menu appear.

5) Click on the Program/File radio button.

6) On the far-right, you will notice a button with three little dots--this is your "Browse" button.

7) Click on it and navigate to your firefox.exe file (usually, C: > Program Files > Mozilla Firefox > firefox.exe).

8) Click OK.

Hopefully that will do it. I have attached a movie to help you out.

make sure you roll your toolbar down and out. You have to add it to the 3rd column. If you are getting that message it is because you are trying to add it to the toolbox not the 3rd column which is the shortcut bar

You can also drag the short cut icon for Firefox onto your Short Cut Bar (the third column of your main toolbox).
