Problem configuring toolbar - expanded set not visible

for FCKeditor full features in drupal:

in order to use, you must have BOTH
- the drupal permissions set to use FCKeditor for the role AND
- that role assigned to a profile in the following:

Home › Administer › Site configuration › FCKeditor

choose a profile you wish to add the extra buttons:
basic setup -> choose the roles
editor appearance -> toolbar -> DrupalFull

that's it : )
