Creating new toolbars

InfoMaker has built-in toolbars. When you start InfoMaker, you see what is called the PowerBar. In each painter, you also see one or more PainterBars. But PowerBar and PainterBar are actually types of toolbars you can create to make working in InfoMaker easier.

PowerBars and PainterBars

A PowerBar is a toolbar that always displays in InfoMaker, unless you hide it. A PainterBar is a toolbar that always displays in the specific painter for which it was defined, unless you hide it. You can have up to four PowerBars, named PowerBar1, PowerBar2, and so on. You can have up to eight PainterBars in each painter, named PainterBar1, PainterBar2, and so forth.

Where you create them

You can create a new PowerBar anywhere in InfoMaker, but to create a new PainterBar, you must be in the workspace of the painter for which you want to define the PainterBar.

To create a new toolbar:

Position the pointer on any toolbar, display the pop-up menu, and select New.

About the StyleBar In painters that do not have a StyleBar, StyleBar is on the list in the New Toolbar dialog box. You can define a toolbar with the name StyleBar, but you can add only painter-specific buttons, not style buttons, to it.
Select a PowerBar name or a PainterBar name and click OK.

The Customize dialog box displays with the Current toolbar box empty.
One at a time, drag the toolbar buttons you want from the Selected palette box to the Current toolbar box and then click OK.
