Hello,

Yes you are right, but I just thought that if I buy "market leader" then it would work OK,
and I would be able to concentrate on more important things than UI. OK, that's my problem anyway.

I can confirm that customized toolbar is not loaded with the beta.
Only docking panes are loaded properly.

Below is the procedure to restore old settings if you want to revert to old version.
The procedure requires working knowledge of RegEdit.

There are two things you need to do to restore old UI.

Restore these 2 registry keys:

1)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TJP\Broker\CommandBars47-Controls\Controls

to string value:

"C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Broker.exe-CommandBars47"

(or whatever installation path you use)

and
2)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TJP\Broker\CommandBars47-Controls\LoadFromFile

to DWORD value = 1

Last step is to restore
Broker.exe-CommandBars47

file inside AmiBroker directory from the backup.
There are high chances are that this file is intact because 5.01 saves the config file in completely different location and under 
different name,
so restoring registry keys should be enough.

Then run 5.00 official or previous versions and it should load old toolbar.
