Im adding a toolbar but it always appears on the left, is there a way to choose? and also to have one on the right too?

Do you mean the sidemenu in the toolbar?
Currently the Toolbar doesn't support the right side menu. You can add commands to the right though.

I was unable to get the sidemenu to work, was confused how it is meant to work and never got it to appear (simplest example would be good, I found your demo code confusing). So I went with the toolbar, seems a bit weird that it can only go on one side to me.

The old side menu bar allowed that https://www.codenameone.com/blog/on-the-side-up-on-top.html

However this was somewhat flaky so we never added official support for it in the Toolbar.

Also is there a way to make it take more space than a 3rd of the screen? The sidemenu that is.. love the smoothness.

What units do these use? is it a percentage ?

Also how do I specify the width of the toolbar's side menu ? Like so it takes up only 50% when its pulled out?

This is only about the side menu both for the side menu bar and the toolbar. The unit is in percentage.
