3.4.2. Toolbars<br />

The toolbars provide access to most of the same functions as the menus, plus additional tools for<br />

interacting with the map. Each toolbar item has popup help available. Hold your mouse over the item<br />

and a short description of the tool’s purpose will be displayed.<br />

Every menubar can be moved around according to your needs. Additionally every menubar can be<br />

switched off using your right mouse button context menu.<br />

Tip 2 REAPPEARING TOOLBARS<br />

If you have accidentally hidden all your toolbars, you can get them back by choosing Show most toolbars<br />

from the View|Toolbars menu.<br />
