Toolbars
OOo has several types of toolbars: docked, floating, and tear-off.
Docked toolbars can be moved to different locations or made to float,
and floating toolbars can be docked.
The top docked toolbar (default position) is called the
Standard
toolbar
. The Standard toolbar is consistent across the OpenOffice.org
applications.
The second toolbar across the top (default location) is the
Formatting
toolbar
. It is a context-sensitive bar that shows the relevant tools in
response to the cursor’s current position or selection. For example,
when the cursor is on a graphic, the Formatting bar provides tools for
formatting graphics; when the cursor is in text, the tools are for
formatting text.
Displaying or hiding toolbars
To display or hide toolbars, choose View > Toolbars, then click on the
name of a toolbar in the list. An active toolbar shows a checkmark
beside its name. Tear-off toolbars are not listed in the View menu.
Submenus and tear-off toolbars
Toolbar icons with a small triangle to the right will display
submenus
,
tear-off toolbars
, and other ways of selecting things, depending on the
icon.
Figure 2 shows a tear-off toolbar from the Drawing toolbar.
