Displaying and hiding toolbars

When you start IntelliCAD® 2001 the first time, the Standard, Draw 2D, and Modify toolbars are displayed. IntelliCAD provides about a dozen toolbars, which you can customize by adding and deleting tools. You can also move and resize toolbars, and you can create new toolbars. You can use a shortcut menu to display or hide toolbars.

You can also choose whether toolbars are displayed large or small and in color. You can choose to display or hide ToolTips, which provide descriptions of tools that display when you pause the cursor over them. Go to View > Toolbars to make these selections.

Toolbars are either docked or floating. A floating toolbar has a title bar and a Close box, can be located anywhere on the screen, and can be resized. A docked toolbar does not display a title or Close box, cannot be resized, and is attached along one of the edges of the drawing window.

To choose which toolbars to display

  1. Right-click anywhere on a docked toolbar or the status bar to display the toolbar shortcut menu.
  2. Select the toolbars you want displayed.
  3. If the toolbar does not appear in the shortcut menu, choose Toolbars.
  4. In the Select Toolbars dialog box, choose the toolbars you want displayed, and then click OK.
