How can I arrange icons in the location bar?

I want to arrange the icons in the location bar but can't find the way to do so, both on Google and Firefox Support site.

So, is there anyone who know how to do so? Thanks.

And just my suggestion. I think the star(bookmarks) icon should always be at the last place. As you have many add-on which place its icon at the location bar installed, it's become harder to find and press that star.

Another of my suggestion is, Firefox have to choose its standard for its add-on icon. For example, some icon appear as a button with boarder like those of a standard Firefox's button set and some just appear their icon without boarder like those we have found in Google Chrome extension. So, it's really hard to make a nice user interface. Still, it's better than 3.x series which all of add-on icon are all over the place.

Most visit on bookmarks bar is really hard to restore once deleted, can't create a live bookmark if a website using feedburner. You have to type ?format=xml at the end of its URL. for it to work. This is the downside I found in bookmarks bar section.

I'm just fully switched from Google Chrome to Mozilla Firefox this week.

Not working, as the location bar count as one item, so the icons inside the location bar can't be arrange using this method.

It doesn't bring back Most Visited button on the bookmarks bar. I found the only way to bring it back is https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Restore%20the%20default%20Smart%20Bookmarks%20Folders , which is a bit too hard and inconvenient way to do. Only a geek won't uninstall and reinstall his/her Firefox after Most Visited disappear.

Thank you, my friend. But as I have said, the location bar count as one item, so the icons inside the location bar can't be arrange using this method.

An image I uploaded is the location bar I'm talking about. The icon set at the right hand side is the one I want to rearrange.

Oh those were the items you wanted to arrange. i guess you can't arrange them. these are arranged according to the Firefox build. atleast i don't know much if they can be arranged or not.
