    Move Location Bar

    Does anyone know how I can move the location bar in nautilus up by the toolbar, as shown by the pic below.

    I'd rather not have to download the source of nautilus and edit the code / compile it myself.

    By the way, a guy on Ubuntu Forums thought this was a mockup. It's not. It's the regular version of Nautilus, only I removed some toolbar buttons through the /usr/share/nautilus/ui xml files.

    I just want the location bar next to the toolbar to conserve screen space, and be a bit more like Finder.

    You can toggle the location bar on and off by pressing Ctrl and the 'L' key

    I know, but that isn't what I want.

    Ack!
    My mistake. I understand what you mean now.

    Have you tried using the gconf-editor to see if you can change the position of that bar?
    If it's not available in there then you may have to re-complie Nautilus.

    Sorry I can't be of more help.
    Hopefully one of the gurus in this forum may be of more help
