Display All Custom Buttons Without Dropdown on Record Page

Display All Custom Buttons Without Dropdown on Record Page

In my org's workflow we usually want to do some kind of quick action off of an individual record - i.e. of an individual contact, or individual deal.  What we have always found a hindrance is the location of all custom buttons being in the drop down on the top right of the screen.  Sometimes it's forgotten that a certain quick action exists because it's not visible and thus it's not used.

Is it possible to have an expanded row of all of the custom buttons?  Or be able to place certain custom buttons on the screen in the module layout editor the same way you place fields?    If not could something yielding a similar outcome of "having all the relevant custom buttons visible on the record page at the same time" possibly be done in an alternative way?
