I have created a couple of Actions, which require clicking on the "Actions" menu item and then selecting the desired action item.

I think it would be a great addition to allow user icons on the toolbar that wold be linked to the action item.

Oh, presently the working dialog box says "Applying action to files". It would be more informative to insert the action's name, such as "Applying Plus Cover to files".

Thanks!

Couldn't you have added your contribution to one of the many threads circling around the topic of a user-defined toolbar, e.g. this one:

> [@Custom button on toolbar?](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/custom-button-on-toolbar/10721):
>
> Does anyone know if you can place a button on the toolbar to run an action? Would be a nice feature... Cheers, P

I thought that adding to a four year old thread was bad form.

Perhaps I was mistaken.

So you are telling me to copy/paste my question into that thread?

I can do that if it pleases you.

Thanks for your expert guidance.

No.  
I referred to the forum guide lines which kindly ask you to  
" Also make sure, you're using the [search](https://community.mp3tag.de/search) feature or simply browse through the [categories](https://community.mp3tag.de/categories) — there are so many questions answered already"  
and if you think that a four year old thread is too young, have a look at this one from 2005:

> [@Add toolbar button for "Tag Panel"](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/add-toolbar-button-for-tag-panel/2380):
>
> Add toolbar button for "Tag Panel" (to show/hide). Very easy and very useful. slight_smile

So, this idea has been around for quite a while and you see what has happened in the meantime.
