Showing and hiding
toolbars
You can hide or move a toolbar if it is
blocking your view of the workspace and
cluttering the screen. You can move the
toolbars anywhere on the screen. If you drag
a toolbar to the edge of the design
workspace, it attaches to the sides, top, or
bottom edge of the workspace. You can
arrange the toolbars in an order that is
comfortable for you. You can also leave
toolbars floating on your workspace.
To see the name of each tool on the
various toolbars, simply move your
pointer over the tools. A small Tool Tip
box pops up and displays the tool name.
To show or hide the toolbar:
1 Choose the toolbar you want to show or
hide from the Toolbars menu.
A check mark indicates that the toolbar is
visible on your screen.
2 To move the toolbars, drag the floating
toolbar by its title bar or drag by the gray
area around the buttons.
