Getting Started The Toolbar A toolbar is displayed below the menu bar. This displays a series of buttons which provide a quick way of actioning commands or displaying setup dialog boxes when clicked. You can redefine all the buttons and add or remove buttons from the toolbar using the Button Tools dialog box. Refer to the chapter entitled The Toolbar for a complete description of all the default buttons and how to redefine the toolbar. The Soft Buttons A set of soft buttons can be displayed along the bottom of the emulator window. These can be programmed so that they perform various functions when clicked. There are four soft button levels. Each level consists of twelve programmable buttons, providing a combined total of 48 programmable buttons. You can display all four levels at the same time if required. All levels are accessible even if not all are displayed, levels stored off-screen can be 'scrolled' into view by clicking the Level button. The soft buttons are programmed using the Soft Buttons dialog box, which is displayed by selecting Settings in the menu bar then Soft Buttons... The setting of the Visible Levels option determines how many soft button levels are displayed. Refer to the Setup Menus chapter for information on programming the buttons. The Status Bar Along the bottom of the display is a status bar which shows the status of various operations and enables you to switch between modes. The information displayed in the status bar depends on the current terminal emulation. The following description applies when running any of the DEC VT terminal emulations, though some of the fields and buttons will be applicable to other emulations as well. 2-28
