    The Big Blue Share Button is the most hated change to Acrobat in 2018. It needs to be Removed, or at least Removable. There are two problems with the BBSB, as colorfully demonstrated in the attached image.

    1. The BBSB takes up space that should be used for the custom toolbar. At least 4 more tools, plus the "..." expandable menu could be visible in Image A (compared with B).

    2. The BBSB acts as though it was not meant to be part of the toolbar. Although unclear in Image A when the toolbar is Left Aligned, it is clear in Image B when the toolbar is Center Aligned that the BBSB is not recognized by the tools, which disappear behind the BBSB.

    3. Regardless of the BBSB, there should be an option to keep the entire toolbar in Left Alignment, rather than dynamically changing to Center Alignment when the program window is widened. Also, the custom toolbar should fill the toolbar until it reaches the end of the window, adding the "..." to the end if needed. As it is now, the "..." is way too early, wasting room for about 4 more custom tools.

    We pay a lot of money for your software each year - way more than we used to. And this BBSB is not look a Feature any user wanted (I seriously doubt someone made a Request for it in these forums). To be honest, it looks like the BBSB was added to Promote the use of the Share function, so users invite others have to subscribe to a version that allows them to utilize the editing and other functions. Marketing. That's what it looks like.

    When the non-customizable BBSB (that nobody wants) reduces and obstructs the custom toolbar that paying users greatly value and want, you should make up for it's unwanted existence by (1) Removing the BBSB or making it Removable, (2) Adding an option to keep the toolbar in Left Alignment rather than dynamically going to Center Alignment, and (3) Increasing the usable toolbar space so tools fill all the white space available (until all tools are visible or the "..." is next to the right side of the window). See Image E for example of how far the toolbar should extend to fill the available space.
