A toolbar is displayed for all browse windows in the JADE development environment. In addition, the right of the Browser toolbar contains the Editor Clipboard toolbar, to enhance your use of the internal JADE editor clipboards. (For details, see "Using the Editor Clipboard Toolbar", later in this chapter.)
For details about the JADE Painter toolbars that provide painter functions, see "Painter Toolbars", in Chapter 5.
Use Browser toolbar buttons to:
Quickly access commonly used functions
Perform general administrative functions
Navigate around the JADE development environment
To use a toolbar button
Click the appropriate button
Toolbar buttons that are not available for selection are disabled (dimmed). For example, if you select a class in the Class Browser window, the Save toolbar button is disabled and cannot be selected.
The toolbar is displayed by default. To hide the toolbar display, uncheck the Show Tool Bar check box in the Window sheet of the Preferences dialog, accessed from the Preferences command in the Options menu of browser windows.
You can reposition the toolbar vertically or horizontally, by clicking on the grip bar and dragging the toolbar to the required position on the background form or causing it to float in an independent window.
The View menu in a Hierarchy Browser enables you to change the size of browser toolbar icons. For details, see "Changing the Size of Toolbar Icons", in the following subsection.
You can drag one or more files from the Windows Explorer onto the:
New Workspace or Open Workspace toolbar button to open a new workspace for each file that is dropped. (Any folders that are dropped are ignored.)
Load toolbar button to open the Load Options dialog and populate the Schema File Name text box with the file or files. If you drop:
A single file with a .mul file type, the Load Multiple Schemas check box is checked.
More than one file, the Load Multiple Files check box is checked and all of the dropped file names are displayed in the Schema File Name text box, so that you can add more files, if required.
Dropping a folder is rejected.
