Configuring the screen layout
Working with WSCAD 5
The command toolbars and the library toolbars can be docked against the other side of
the screen or placed as a free-standing window. You can try this easily: move the cursor
onto a toolbar (but not onto a button), press the left mouse button and then move the
cursor, keeping the mouse button pressed. The new position of the toolbar appears in
outline and as soon as you release the mouse button the toolbar appears in this position.
If you click once with the right mouse button on the area beside a docked toolbar or in
the window header, you will get a small menu that gives you (e.g.) a list of all available
library toolbars. With one mouse click you can activate or hide a library toolbar.
Of course you can configure the toolbars: If you click with the right mouse button on a
button, you can immediately insert a new button (or a separator) in this position. Click
on the new button, select ‚Record’ and then use the relevant command from the menu
bar. The command is accepted and its icon appears on the button.
The buttons of the command toolbar have preset icons, but for icons on the symbol
toolbars you have a completely free hand. The button is assigned via the Component
Editor, because each button must be assigned to both a component name and a library.
You can ‚snapshot’ the relevant icon out of the component editor and apply different
background colours if you wish.
Hint
You can design the buttons on the library toolbars by yourself,
using the symbol editor.
The above description has been kept deliberately simple. If you would like to know more,
please use the Online Help. Look in the section 'Working with WSCAD 5' to find further
information on the individual elements of the screen layout. In the section 'Settings –
Configure Screen' you will find a detailed description of creating and managing the
toolbars.
