Ok, now I understand. That's a good question, but I only
have a not so 
good answer. Currently this is not possible as an add-on
doesn't know 
its resource identifier (e.g.
"private:resource/toolbar/addon_1") on 
package creation time. We know that this is a limitation we
have to 
solve. I hope that we will fix it in one of the future
versions (may be 
before OOo 3.0).

A future solution would be: The resource identifier of an
add-on is 
created from the root node identifier of its
"OfficeToolbar" definition. 
That's known on package creation time and you could add the

<Module>WindowState.xcu files to you package. There
you would need to 
add a node for your toolbar and set the property
"Docked" to "true".

Currently I only have a hard way to get this done. If you
really need 
it, just tell me and I can give you a description.

Carsten
