Being able to move tool bars and dock them and pin them would be helpful. I find it cumbersome to have the visualizations and fields tools on the right side of the page, feels unnatural having them on the there.

RE: Ability to Relocate Toolbars

Back in April 2016 way before Bookmarks etc... I created an Idea about moving all Format Options to the Ribbon as contextual Menus.
https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/13678455-move-the-format-paint-brush-options-to-contextua
As you can see not as popular as my Collapse/Expand Matrix buttons Idea which took only 3 years to implement) You can see a picture here... https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/April-2016-Update-Formatting-Options/m-p/32408/highlight/true#M11288
I really hope this Idea gets traction and gets implemented.
Hopefully @deldersveld tweeting about this would help.
The moderators may also consider combining the 2.
Thanks!

This is the panes. When the bookmarks pane and the sync slicers pane and the other panes are all open, we should be able to collapse them to the right

RE: Ability to Relocate Toolbars

I'd like to get behind this one, but I've got to wonder... isn't there another idea in here somewhere which has a few hundred votes already? Surely, there is an idea already about dock-ability and using two screens for development?
