All toolbars in the program have their corresponding action also listed in the main menu. This standard tool bar buttons are ALL listed in the File menu of the application.

I'll discuss the buttons from left to right.


New
When you click on the little white paper, a new document will be created (but not added to the project). This is the default action of this button. When you click the 'down arrow' of this button, You'll get a pop-up just as explained in the New section at the File menu topic (Main Menu chapter).
In this way you can also create a new document and add it to the project.

Open
When you click on this button, you'll be warped to the open dialog as described in the File menu topic. If you however click the down arrow, you'll get a menu shown in figure 28.

When you click the down arrow on the open button, you'll get this pop-up menu. In this way you can just open a file, as the normal open, as also open a project, and the complete Reopen menu is stored here too. Quite handy, if you ask me.

Save
Save the active edit child, exactly the same as 'File > Save'.

Save as...
Save the active edit child as another file, exactly the same as 'File > Save as...'.
