How to make toolbars in Visual Studio 2010 float? - visual-studio-2010

I used to make my toolbars float in Visual Studio 2008, but it can no longer be done with Visual Studio 2010. Read the documentation and found nothing, any idea how to do that? Holding either Ctrl, Alt, Shift wouldn't help.

According to this - That's impossible on VS 2010.

Right click on toolbars --> customize... --> on a "toolbar" tab select the toolbar that you want to move --> click on the "Modify Selection" and select the "Dock Location".

I like to display the results of the right-click > "Find All References" command of Visual Studio 2017 in a floating window and close the window when I'm done.

This works by default with Visual Studio 2019.
With visual Studio 2017 15.9.12 the behavior is like you describe and I see no way to change this.

VS 2010 RTM out of the box does not have a feature to hide the main menu. There is an extension that hides the menu bar; did you install that? If so, uninstalling it from the extension manager will restore the default behavior.
