Using the Toolbars

The Toolbar shows the tools that you use as you work with operators. The Toolbar is context sensitive; it shows the tools for the current operator.

For example, the Composite Toolbar includes tools to move and rotate layers and change the composite view.

The Paint Toolbar includes tools to draw lines, masks, and selections.

For information on the Paint tools, see Paint Interface. For information on the Composite tools, see Compositing.

To access a Toolbar:

Make the operator the current operator. To do this, use one of the methods listed in Displaying Operators in the Viewport.

The operator is displayed in the viewport and its tools appear in the Toolbar.

To show the toolbar:

Choose Window | Palettes | Show Toolbar.

Note: If the Toolbar is covered by the Workspace panel, click the Toolbar tab or press F2.
