The PlanetPress Quick Access Toolbar
The PlanetPress Design Quick Access Toolbar is displayed, by default, on the right side of the PlanetPress
Design Button, and provides one-click shortcuts to commonly used functions and features.
You may customize the commonly used shortcuts you want by right-clicking on any element you would like to
assign to the Quick Access Toolbar and selecting Add to Quick Access Toolbar. Conversely, you can
remove any element by right-clicking it on the Quick Acces Toolbar and selecting Remove from Quick
Access Toolbar.
The Quick Access Toolbar can also be displayed either above or below the PlanetPress Design Ribbon.
Document Page Area
The Document Page area displays the pages of your document. You can set the paper format (8.5 x 11 inches,
A4) for the entire document as well as for each individual page of the document.
You can also set the default paper format in the User Options dialog box, and the Page area displays one page
of your document at a time.
Data Pane
The Data Pane is a view on your input data, and one of the ways you can select data to include in your
document. The Data Pane is a component of the Data Selector and its contents and appearance reflect the
options set for it in the Data Selector.
You can drag and drop a data selection directly from the Data Pane into the Page area to quickly create a data
selection object, a bar code object, or a business graphic object.
In the Document Structure area or in the Page area, when you select a data selection, bar code, or business
graphic that uses a Contiguous data selection, PlanetPress Design highlights the data selection for that object
in the Data Pane.
Document Structure Area
The Document Structure area is a hierarchical representation of all the elements in your document. You can
use the expand/collapse buttons in the hierarchy to expand and collapse the top level folders of the hierarchy
as well as the contents of each page, and the contents of any group of objects.
You can use the Structure area to do the following:
• Assign and View multiple sample data files.
• View all the elements in a document.
• Select any element in a document.
• Add or delete document elements.
• Copy, cut, and paste elements in a document.
• Select objects.
• Navigate among the pages of your document.
• Dock and undock the Structure area or hide it, and can configure the appearance of the Structure area.
