It used to be so easy and straightforward with the toolbar visible on the top of the page. Now it is a labrynth. Please allow the option of the original page layout.

    Some people have run into the problem that due to their particular configuration of screen size and settings and browser window size and settings, they can never get the browser window wide enough to see the expanded version of the menu bar.
