Yes, there is the sysvar LOCKUI (detailsunlock parts of the ui, you find also a small symbol in the lower statusbar (right side) that you can use to control the sysvar, right click the symbol to get the options: - alfred. You need to right-click on the taskbar, and uncheck 'Lock the taskbar' to unlock the taskbar before you can drag it to another position. Method 2: Change taskbar position on Windows 10 screen via taskbar properties. Step 1: Right-click on the taskbar, and then select Properties. The main idea behind the taskbar is to provide a useful tool which shows a list of running apps and open windows as tasks so you can switch quickly between them. The user can lock the taskbar to prevent its accidental moving or modification. Here is how to lock or unlock the taskbar in Windows 10.

I migrated from Eclipse Indigo (3.7) to Juno (4.2). In Juno all toolbars seem to be permanently locked. Is there a way to unlock them so they could be moved or rearranged?

Try Windows- Preferences - Appearance

See the print:

Then type Theme in the Search box (or go General->Appeearance->Theme) and choose Window 7. restart and you'll be able to move the icons/groups in the toolbar (but not get rid of any)

After you're done you'll be asked to restart/ I went to Classsic theme and THEN restarted.

Hope it helps

I posted this earlier as a comment to my question, but was suggested that it should be an answer, so here we go:

It has been officially confirmed that the ability to move toolbars (or any trim elements for that matter) is broken in Eclipse Juno. Here's the link to the Bug #340695 for everyone who's interested in tracking this issue. The fix is expected in the Milestone release 4.2.2.

Partial workaround: http://blog.redfin.com/devblog/2012/07/hide_eclipse_juno_toolbar.html

A flying jatt 2016 yify. Use Help > Welcome, then Window / Show Toolbar. At that point you should be able to move your minimized window toolbar(s) around (what was 'fast view' before).

Good grief. I tried changing to the Windows 7 Classic theme because I was unable to move my toolbar buttons. Worse even, when the debug perspective opened automatically upon hitting the first breakpoint, the Java perspective button remained pressed, but pressing it again changed back to the Java perspective. Now, with Windows 7 Classic, the editor tabs look like in Indigo (whose look&feel personally I liked much better), but now the menu bar is gone and all perspective chooser buttons are gone too. The menu hotkeys (such as 'Alt-W p' to get to Window-Preferences) don't seem to work. If I don't want to re-install I would probably now have to fiddle with some config files to find the Theme setting. Well, thank you..

For Eclipse Kepler, I have reported the bug again (the fix to the previously listed bug doesn't appear to have made a difference), and listed a workaround.

Changing the CSS for the org.eclipse.platform plugin to use ./images/ instead of ./ in all of the image URLs should cause it to start working.

Obviously this is still broken in v4.3/Kepler. Thanks to the above appends I found a way to fix this (using theme Windows Classic).

Thanks folks!M.

How to Lock or Unlock the Taskbar in Windows 10
Windows includes a special application desktop toolbar called the taskbar that shows on the bottom of a display screen by default. The taskbar allows you to find, see, open, and switch between your apps. You can also see the date and time, system icons, and items running in the background on the notification area. You can make the taskbar look how you want, manage your calendar, pin your favorite apps to it, change the size, Autocadmove

it to where you want to display on your screen, and specify how taskbar buttons group together when you have more than one window open.
If you have more than one display connected to your PC, then the taskbar will show on each display by default. The main taskbar is the taskbar with the clock and notification area on it, and is on your main display by default. The other taskbars are the ones that show on the other displays that are not set as your main display, and do not have the notification area on them.
You can keep the taskbar in one place by locking it, which can prevent accidental moving or resizing. If you unlock it, you can drag the taskbar to resize or move it to the bottom, left or right side, or top of your display(s).
This tutorial will show you how to lock or unlock the taskbar for your account in Windows 10.
