Practising manipulating windows
Title bar
The title bar displays the title of a window. This may be the name of an application,
directory, or a document you're editing. Here's the title bar from the Apps directory
display:
Back icon
Clicking on the back icon has the effect of putting a window to the back of the pile of
windows on the screen. If you click on this, the window will be hidden behind any
windows which overlap the area it occupies.
Close icon
Clicking on the close icon closes a window. If you click on this, the window will be
removed from the screen.
Toggle size icon
Clicking on the toggle size icon switches a window between full size and the last size
displayed. (Full size is either large enough to display everything in the window, or
such that the window fills the whole screen.)
This alternating action is called toggling.
Adjust size icon
Dragging the adjust size icon lets you alter the size and shape of a window. Clicking
the Select button on it also brings a window to the front of a stack of windows.
Practising manipulating windows
Practise using the window icons to do the things described on the following pages.
