How to remove the default menus and buttons from Unity editor?

Is it possible to remove default menu buttons like the Play Pause buttons from the Unity editor? Also, can I add custom dropdowns in addition to the default dropdowns like Layers and Layout? Check the attached image for more clarification Ref mage

I tried researching the Editor scripting API but I dont find what I am looking for.

don't know if you can remove already existing buttons or not but for adding new buttons Unity Toolbar Extender is a very good solution.

here's a sample code:


    [InitializeOnLoad]
    public class ToolbarExtend {
        static ToolbarExtend()
        {
            ToolbarExtender.LeftToolbarGUI.Add(OnToolbarGUILeft);
            ToolbarExtender.RightToolbarGUI.Add(OnToolbarGUIRight);
        }

        static void OnToolbarGUILeft()
        {
            GUILayout.FlexibleSpace();

            if(GUILayout.Button(new GUIContent("Scenes", "Show Scenes"))) {
                PingAndSelect(AssetDatabase.LoadMainAssetAtPath("Assets/Scenes/LoginScene.unity"));
            }
        }

        static void OnToolbarGUIRight()
        {
            
            if(GUILayout.Button(new GUIContent("Build Folder", "Open Build Path")))
            {
                BuildNamingTool.Reset();
                Debug.Log(BuildNamingTool.BuildFolder);
                System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", BuildNamingTool.BuildFolder.Replace("/", @"\"));
            }
            
            GUILayout.FlexibleSpace();
        }


        private static void PingAndSelect(Object target)
        {
            EditorGUIUtility.PingObject(target);
            Selection.activeObject = target;
        }
    }

and Unity Circular Menu is a good solution for quick access to some options.

here's a sample code:

        [CircularMenu(path: "Project Setting", icon: "Settings")]
        public static void OpenProjectSetting()
        {
            SettingsService.OpenProjectSettings("Project/Player");
        }

        [CircularMenu(path: "PlayerPrefs", icon: "Preset.Context")]
        public static void OpenPlayerPrefs()
        {
            EditorApplication.ExecuteMenuItem("Window/PlayerPrefs Editor");
        }
        
        [CircularMenu(path: "Clear PlayerPrefs", icon: "TreeEditor.Trash")]
        public static void ClearPlayerPrefs()
        {
            PlayerPrefs.DeleteAll();
            PlayerPrefs.Save();
        }
