hi,
In method Activator.start() of my plugin, I removed the "File" buttons group as below:

 		WorkbenchWindow aWindow = (WorkbenchWindow) PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getWorkbenchWindows()[0];
		if(aWindow != null){
			ICoolBarManager aBarMgr = aWindow.getCoolBarManager2();
			if (aBarMgr != null) {
				IContributionItem aItem = aBarMgr.find("org.eclipse.ui.workbench.file");
			        if (aItem != null) {
					aBarMgr.remove(aItem);
				}
			}	
		}

then I added some new buttons by the way "actionSet";
finally I built the plugin and move it into "plugin" folder of eclipse, a strange thing is that those new buttons on main toolbar is properly left-aligned the first time I start my application (when there's no .metadata folder). However, after that the buttons are not aligned properly anymore. plz see the pic.
