The Design View Toolbars
4 Designing a Form
The Design View Toolbars
This section describes each toolbar in design view and defines its
buttons. There are five toolbars:
• The standard toolbar
• The font/text toolbar
• The drawing toolbar
• The arrange toolbar
• The calculation toolbar (See Chapter 8, Using Calculations, for
information on this toolbar and its functions.)
You can drag these toolbars to any other location in the OmniForm
window.
The Standard Toolbar in Design View
Use the standard toolbar for basic file operations such as saving and
printing. Use it also to define and format the fields you create.
All buttons correspond to menu commands of the same name. Refer to
the online help for an explanation of each button/menu command.
