<title>The Menu and Toolbar Items</title>

<para>&stage; presents different types of interfaces for you to interact
with the program. Perhaps the most familiar type of interface is the
menu which appears on the top of the &stage; window.</para>

<para>Clicking on the menu items gives you a list of commands from which you
can choose the one you want. Many of the commands can also be accessed
directly by holding down &Ctrl; or &Alt; and pressing another key on
your keyboard. In the next section, each of the menu commands is
described in brief.</para>

<sect1 id="toolbars">
<title>The Toolbars</title>

<sect2 id="manipulating-toolbars">
<title>Manipulating the Toolbars</title>

<para>In addition to the menus, &stage; also has a toolbar. The 
toolbar consists of a collection of icons. A toolbar icon often presents
a convenient shortcut to a command that is found in one of the menus.</para>

<para>You can move the unlocked toolbar around by dragging the handle at the left. The unlocked toolbar can
be <quote>docked</quote> or attached to any side of the &stage;
window. If you like, you can also have the toolbar <quote>float</quote> in
its own window, separated from the main &stage; window.</para>

<para> If you don't like dragging toolbars around,
<mousebutton>right</mousebutton> click on the handle and a menu pops up.
</para>

<para>
Choosing the item <guisubmenu>Text Position</guisubmenu> leads
to an additional menu which lets you control the appearance of the items
in toolbar. This additional cascading menu is shown in the screenshot
below:
</para>

<screenshot>
<screeninfo>Text Position</screeninfo>
<mediaobject>
<imageobject>
<imagedata fileref="barstyle1.png" format="PNG"/>
</imageobject>
<textobject>
<phrase>Text Position</phrase>
</textobject>
</mediaobject>
</screenshot>

<para>
You can choose to display the toolbar items as text instead of icons, or
even to combine both icons and text. If you want both text and icons,
the cascading menu allows you to select whether the text appears beside
the icons or below them.
</para>

<para>
In icons only view, if you
don't know what a particular icon means, you can hold the mouse over the
icon, and after a second or so, a little hint pops up in a highlighted
text box.
</para>

<para>
The <guilabel>Orientation</guilabel> item in the popup menu has to do with 
the placement of the toolbar. You can choose any of the four sides of the &stage;
window.
</para>


<para>
The &stage; menus are discussed in the following sections.

<para>At the top is a drop down box to enable you to choose which
toolbar you want to modify. In the picture the <guilabel>File</guilabel> toolbar is
selected. If I want to add the <guiicon>Dockers</guiicon> icon to
that toolbar, I click the entry in the left window. The arrow pointing
right becomes available, if I click the arrow the <guiicon>Dockers</guiicon> 
entry is added to the selected toolbar. The left arrow
is available when you click in the right side window. It allows you to
remove an icon from a toolbar. The up and down arrows become active
when an item on the right side is selected. You can also move the highlight in
the right side window up and down with the keyboard arrow keys. By
clicking on the arrows with the mouse you can change the order of the entries 
in the menu.
