Resizing a control bar
Move the pointer over the edge of the control bar. It changes to a double-headed
arrow. You can now drag the edge to resize the control bar.
Creating new control bars
To create a new control bar:
• Drag a button onto the editing area or off the window. This opens a new control
bar containing the button.
Or click
NEW on the CONTROL BARS dialog box. This lets you create a new control bar
and allocate a name to it. The new control bar is empty. You can then drag buttons to
it.
Moving buttons is described below.
Deleting control bars
You can only delete control bars that are empty. Therefore move any buttons to
another control bar. Close the control bar (either click on the
CLOSE icon or use the
CONTROL BARS dialog box). The control bar is automatically deleted when you quit
Page & Layout Designer.
Changing the size of buttons
Buttons can be large or small as selected in the CONTROL BARS dialog box.
Moving buttons and tools
To move buttons or tools:
1. Move the mouse pointer over the button you want to move.
2. Hold down "Alt" (left ALT) to move the button or "AltGr" (right ALT) to copy
the button when used on user-defined control bars and other control bars.
Although on the predefined "Button palette" both ALT-keys do only copy the
button.
3. Drag the button to:
- A different place on the same control bar.
- Or another control bar.
- Or onto the editing area/off Page & Layout Designer to create a new control
bar.
You cannot move buttons onto or off the InfoBar.
