indicates the function of selected toolbar buttons. To display the description for any toolbar button (in the
status bar at the bottom of the screen), position your mouse over the toolbar button, and hold down the left
mouse button. After viewing the description, slide your mouse off the interface button (without releasing the
mouse button). Note that descriptions for toolbar buttons are also provided in relevant sections throughout
this manual.
