Displaying Cover Page Editor Toolbars

To help create and maintain fax cover pages, the Cover Page Editor includes a Command toolbar, a Text toolbar and a Status toolbar. The commands for displaying or hiding the toolbars are all located under the View menu.

View, Command Bar

This toolbar includes buttons and fields for frequently-used menu commands (ie. the Save button is the same as the File | Save command).

The Command toolbar includes toolbar buttons for file management, text editing, tool selection and text layout. When the Command toolbar is displayed, a checkmark appears next to the Command Bar command on the View menu. This command toggles on and off when selected.

View, Text Bar

This toolbar includes buttons and fields used for formatting the text on the current cover page. When a text block is selected, the attributes of the text are displayed in the Text toolbar. (ie when a left-aligned text block is selected, the left alignment paragraph formatting button appears to be pressed in.  The Text toolbar indicates the font, font size, font style and paragraph alignment of the selected text block.

When the Text boolbar is displayed, a checkmark appears next to the Text Bar command on the View menu. This command toggles on and off when selected.

View, Status Bar

The Status toolbar displays messages about the action(s) being performed and the current state of the Cover Page Editor application. It also indicates the position and size of the selected text block. This information can be used to define the relative positioning of objects on the cover page.

NOTE: The position and size units will change depending on the 'zoom-level' that the cover page is being viewed at.

When displayed, the Status toolbar is located across the bottom of the Cover Page Editor application window and a checkmark appears next to the Status Bar command on the View menu. This command toggles on and off when selected.
