The docking stickers point towards the four edges of the interface.
When the control bar you are dragging is close to the place where you want it to dock, move the mouse
over the corresponding area of the docking tool. You will see an outline of the control bar appear on the
interface. To dock the control bar there, release the mouse button.
Tiling Control Bars
You can tile control bars and window panes on the interface. To do this, drag a control bar you want to tile

you move the cursor out of it, leaving only the title bar visible. Move the cursor over the title bar to display
the entire control bar again.
To switch auto-hide on, click on the title bar. To switch auto-hide off, click on the title bar.
The Shortcut Menu
Right-clicking a control bar displays a shortcut menu of available commands. If you right-click a single

you right-click an area that contains no items or data, the menu contains commands related to the control
bar.
