the vertical alignment has never been right on the selection/more menu.  I thought we had a bug for this (I've tried to fix a few times in CSS) but I guess we don't.  Time to fix this.

The text is now properly aligned on FF and Chrome, but you get a "jump" of the items in the toolbar in order to achieve the baseline align when the menu button appears.

On IE9, the drop down button is very poorly aligned, much higher than the adjacent links.  I'd like to fix this after we understand how we will layout the toolbar itself.

see also bug 370522, it may be the outer span causing the problem
Comment 3 Susan McCourt CLA 2012-02-10 15:26:35 EST
I fixed this by getting rid of the span that nested the selection tools.  It seemed impossible to style that span so that it didn't have some adverse effect on one browser or another.

Instead I added a floating div for selection tools next to the regular toolbar so that there is no extra nesting.

This fixes the problem on all browsers.
