Customizing OmniWeb Toolbars

Browser window toolbar

The navigation toolbar at the top of the browser window can be customized to suit your needs and tastes. When you choose Customize Navigation Bar... from the View ▶ Toolbars menu, a sheet will open containing buttons and other items you can add by dragging them into the toolbar. While the customization sheet is open, you can rearrange items on the toolbar by dragging them around or remove items by dragging them out.

You can further customize your browser window using the items in the View ▶ Toolbars submenu. The navigation bar (the one full of buttons), the location bar (an optional separate bar for the address field), and the Favorites bar can all be individually hidden or shown. The Status bar at the bottom of the browser window can also be hidden and shown if desired.

Go Back	Returns you to the last web page you viewed.
Go Forward	After you've used the Back button, clicking this item takes you forward again (to where you were before clicking Back).
Go to Start Page	Takes you to your Start Page specified in General Preferences.
Reload Page	Refetches the page you're viewing from the server or disk.
Stop Load	Click this item to abort the loading of a page and any inline images or other media.
Mark Page	Marks the current page in your history so you can easily return to it using the Next/Previous Mark commands.
Previous Mark	Jumps to the previous page mark in history.

Site Preferences	Displays the Site Preferences interface for the currently selected bookmark or page.
Edit HTML Source	Opens the current page in the HTML Source Editor.
View Links	Opens the current page as a bookmarks collection. Essentially, this reduces a web page to just a list of double-clickable links, hiding all the formatting and images -- which can be quite useful for some pages.
Downloads Panel	Shows the Downloads window so you can monitor the progress of files you're downloading to disk.
Find on Page	Opens the Find Panel for searching for text in the current page.
Load Images	If any inline images in the current page haven't been loaded, clicking this item will load them all.
AutoFill Form	If the current page contains a form, clicking this item will fill it out according to the information in AutoFill Preferences.
Send Link	Clicking this creates a new email message using your preferred email application with the title of the page as the subject and the URL for the page in the body. This is useful when you want to share the address of a page with others.
Smaller Text	Click to decrease the size of text in the browser. This item affects the text zoom setting in Site Preferences so the text will be the same size the next time you visit pages on that site.
Bigger Text	Click to increase the size of text in the browser. This item affects the text zoom setting in Site Preferences so the text will be the same size the next time you visit pages on that site.
Summarize	Invokes the Mac OS X Summary service for the current page or selected text.

Text Encoding	This item allows you to change the text encoding used to display the current page.
Address Field	This item shows the URL of the page you're currently viewing (both as text and as a draggable icon), and allows you to go to other pages by typing their URLs. If you remove this item from the toolbar, it will appear in the Location bar which can be hidden and shown separately.
Search Field	This field allows you to quickly search on any of the sites that appear in the menu under the icon. For more information please see Shortcuts.
Status Indicator	This item displays an animation to indicate that a web page is in the process of being loaded. When the page is done loading, the item stops animating and dims. Click the item to show detailed information about loading processes in the Network Activity window. If this item isn't on the navigation toolbar, it will appear on the separate location bar.
Separator	Put this item between two others to visually separate them.
Space	Or put this item between two others to visually separate them.
Flexible Space	This item is like the Space item, but it expands to fill all available space on the toolbar -- so if you put any items to the right of it, they'll stick to the right-side edge of the toolbar.
Customize	Click this item to open the toolbar customization sheet.

Downloads window toolbar

Resume	Resumes transferring of selected file(s) from where they left off if the server supports partial file transfers.

Source Editor toolbar

Refetch Source	Like the Reload button in the browser window, clicking this item will refetch the HTML document from the server or disk it came from originally, destroying any changes you have made.
Save to Disk	Clicking this item will save the current source document to a locally mounted disk. If you haven't saved the document before, you will be prompted for a location and name to save it with.
Store to Server	Clicking this item will save the current source document to the server it originally came from, if possible. (See Saving Source for more info.)
Redisplay in Browser	Click this item to view the changes you've made to your HTML in a browser window -- this allows you to preview your changes without saving, and images, links, and forms will still work.
Compact HTML	Click this item to remove unnecessary white space from the HTML document. For large documents, this can improve download time for users.
Reformat HTML	When this item is clicked, extra newlines and tabs will be added to the HTML source so that it's easier to read and edit. (This doesn't affect its appearance in the browser.)
