Can I modify the space taken by the top menu bar

Hello, sometimes, my browser will have two option on the right side of the top bar. But sometimes, it will become smaller and few apps to the right will show in the top bar. I wonder can I always show some important apps on the top bar and prevent some apps from display themselves on it?

MacBook Pro 14″, 13.2

Is the User referring to the Menu Bar of the Operating System itself ?


Is the User referring to the Menu Bar of the Browser ?


It appears to unclear which they are referencing to


If it is the Operating System Bar you maybe able to adjust certain aspects via


System Setting >> Accessibilities >> Display and refer to image below

The article from Apple on using the Control Centre will provide insights to this possible issue


refer to link below


Use Control Center on Mac - Apple Support (CA)


As for Notification , you will need to Enable Certain Applications to use this feature ( Send Notification )


Good example of getting a Notification when it is Configured properly in below image where I just received a Notification for a New e-Mail was received


The Notification is a Slide Out from Top Right of the Screen


Second image is of Some ( Not ALL ) of the Applications I Have configured to send Notification
