Standard Toolbars

Standard Toolbars
The iNEWS system provides ten standard toolbars with which you can access many of the same
options you’ll find in the menus; however, some buttons on toolbars are distinct from menu
commands.
Toolbars make it easy for you to quickly perform a function. By dragging and dropping a toolbar,
you can place it anywhere in the workspace to suit your needs. You can also choose to remove
toolbars that you don’t need to conserve screen space. By positioning the mouse pointer over any
button on a toolbar, you can view a tooltip that briefly describes the function of each button.
The standard toolbars cannot be altered, but they can be hidden or moved within the iNEWS
Workspace. Each standard toolbar is described in the following table:
