None of the commands on this menu alter the contents of your document, or the way that it prints out. This means that altering things in this menu does not make your document 'dirty'; no asterisk will appear by the document name in the title bar.</p> <p>If the box beside a menu option is 'pressed', then that option is in effect. In most cases, this means that something is displayed.</p> <h2>Normal/Web Layout/Print Layout</h2> <p>These are three ways of displaying your document.</p> <p>Print Layout shows the margins all around your text, and the edges of the paper. Web Layout shows your document as it would appear in a web browser. Normal suppresses top and bottom margins.</p> <h2>Toolbars</h2> <p>The Toolbars sub-menu lets you choose which toolbars are displayed at the top of the AbiWord window. There are three to choose from, and the standard and formatting toolbars are displayed by default. To change whether or not a toolbar is displayed, select its title from this sub-menu.</p> <h2>Ruler</h2> <p>Selecting this option changes whether or not the rulers are displayed.</p> <h2>Status Bar</h2> <p>Choosing this option changes whether the status bar at the bottom of the window is displayed.</p> <h2>Show Paragraphs</h2> <p>If this option is selected, formatting and other invisible characters are displayed on screen.</p> <h2>Full Screen</h2> <p>If this option is selected, the rulers, toolbars, and status bars are all hidden. This gives you the largest possible window for your document.</p> <h2><a href="dialogzoom.html">Zoom</a></h2> <p style="text-align: left; margin-bottom: 0.0000in; margin-top: 0.0000in; margin-right: 0.0000in"><span style="text-position: ; color:#000000; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: 12,000000pt">This opens the Zoom dialog. The zoom of your view is the magnification at which your document is displayed on your screen.</span></p> </div> <div class="index"> <a href="../index.html" class="bars">Top Page</a> <a href="../tutorial/index.html" class="bars">Tutorial</a> <a href="../howto/index.html" class="bars">How To</a> <a href="../info/index.html" class="bars">Information</a> <a href="index.html" class="bars">Interface</a> <a href="../problems/index.html" class="bars">Problems</a> <a href="../credits.html" class="bars">Credits</a> <a href="../azindex.html" class="bars">Index</a> <a href="../fdl.html" class="bars">GNU FDL</a> </div> </body> </html>
