Customizing Toolbars
ConceptDraw has several toolbar lines in which the tools are grouped by their functions. The application lets you manipulate the toolbars to facilitate your work.
The toolbars can be docked to the application menu bar in the upper part of the screen, or placed in floating state anywhere in the screen area.
To move a toolbar, grab it by its window title or by the space between the icons, and drag it to the needed location.
ConceptDraw lets you set which toolbars should be visible on the screen, and show/hide the needed toolbar at any moment. For example, you may want to hide some rarely used toolbars for economic use of the screen space.
To show/hide a toolbar, you can use the View / Toolbars menu, or just call the context menu on any of the toolbars.
In the list of the toolbars, just check which toolbar should be displayed, or uncheck the toolbar which you want to hide.
The tools and operations from the hidden toolbars can be called easily from the main menu.
You can also use the shortcuts for switching between the tools or performing certain operations.
A toolbar can be resized by dragging its right bottom corner. The buttons will re-arrange automatically to adopt the new size.
Starting from ConceptDraw VI you can also remove or add buttons on toolbars.
Use the Customize dialog to configure toolbars (the menu View / Toolbars / Customize). Apart from toolbars, you can configure the menus, keyboard shortcuts and other parameters in this dialog.
