Mail Font Bar menu is off the screen to the right and needs to be recentred

My mail font bar is waaaayy over to the right in the email creation box.

I seem unable to reset it or move it to the centre where I can use it functionally.

Can someone assist me in getting it back to where I can use it?

Mail Version 13.4 (3608.80.23.2.2)

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

Full Screen didn't resolve.

Accidentally fixed it. It seems it had something to do with removing/deleting the "Flexible Space" and "Space" placeholders that were silently invisible in the toolbar.

Once I dragged and dropped them out to delete them, *poof*, the font toolbar recentered itself.

Thank you for trying some suggestions.

I don't know what is causing both things, but I think they may be related.

Weird stuff can sometimes be fixed by booting into Safe Mode.

You can check to see if it happens while in Safe Mode, then restart normally.

Safe Mode will clear some system caches which may solve the problem.


If it doesn't occur in Safe Mode, but does in normal mode, then it is something installed causing the problem.
