This can be useful when you want to maximize the vertical editing space. A bonus of this feature is that the last used menu items will also be displayed in the top-level of the button menu, making it quick and easy to select the same command again. Where do I enable this? I looked around but didn't find it. (Running Komodo IDE on Windows.) Thanks!
