OS Tahoe 26.1
I have a 37" curved monitor which I enjoy immensely. I have a Safari window open on the left side of the screen while various open documents, folders, etc. are open on the right half of the screen. It's like having two smaller monitors - I love it. I would like to move most of the icons from the top right position to a top center position. How can I do this?
Mac mini, macOS 26.1
It is partially possible with 3rd party apps. The date/time is fixed in the right corner and the control center icon is fixed next to it. But the others can be pushed to the left. For example, I use iStat Menus for system monitoring (CPU, memory, temps, etc.), and it allows the insertion of spacers in the menu bar. I added a bunch of them to the right of the iStat Menus weather display.
Incidentally, this is on a 5K:2K display, so lots of screen real estate there. Also in case you aren't aware, you can move the items around relative to each other in the menu bar (except the date/time and control center) by holding the Command key and dragging icons around (or off) the menu bar.
There are likely other apps that allow you to do the same thing.

I'm not aware of any way to do that in any version of macOS.
I'm not surprised. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
You're welcome.
For what it's worth, it's possible to spread them apart some if that's of any interest.
thank you. Anything that will help move the icons to the left is a help
You're welcome. I used the free OnyX to spread the icons apart.
