ELEMENTS OF LOTUS NOTES

Toolbars
Toolbars work with all the applications in your workspace. Some toolbars are context sensitive, which means that they change depending on the task you are performing. By default, the context sensitive toolbars display when you need them. That is, if you are viewing documents in a list view, the Navigation toolbar displays automatically. However, you can specify that the Navigation toolbar display permanently. You determine which toolbars display all of the time by setting Toolbar preferences. You can add or remove toolbars from your display, and create customized toolbars that include the tools you use most often.

Toolbars display across the top of the application pane, underneath the main menu bar. However, you can drag and drop your toolbars anywhere on your screen, within IBM® Lotus® Notes® and outside of it, as long as Lotus Notes is open. Clicking the toolbar grip changes the cursor to a four-directional arrow and enables dragging.
