Hold the Command key down to drag things around in Mac app toolbars

Updated June 10th, 2019.

This doesn’t work everywhere, but generally speaking, if you want to rearrange buttons in a toolbar you can do it by holding down the ⌘ key (Command key) and dragging the buttons to place. Of course you can do this by finding the menu item for “Customize Toolbar…” but ⌘-dragging (Command-dragging) is faster.
