Tools menu and Standard toolbar

Tools menu is the main bag of tools for building models.

Most of these tools are replicated in the Standard Toolbar, which is a bar with buttons that offer quick mouse shortcuts for a number of menu commands.

It is also accessible in a floating form

Standard Toolbar can be made invisible using the toggle command Toolbar on the View Menu. It can be also moved to any position within QGeNIe application window. To move the toolbar from a locked position, click on the vertical bar at the left edge of the toolbar and drag it to its destination. Besides the standard buttons for opening, closing, and saving a file, this toolbar has buttons for selecting various tools found in the Tool Menu.

We review here Standard Toolbar tools that mimic the Tools menu tools and allow for creating objects in the Graph View window. The drawing tool currently selected is marked by a dot on the left side of its name in the Tools menu. Each of the Tool menu tools can be also selected using a corresponding Standard Toolbar icon. While choosing a tool from the Tools menu, selects the tool for a single editing action (with the exception of the Select Objects tool, which is the default tool), the tools on the Standard Toolbar work also in sticky mode. When a drawing tool on the Standard Toolbar is double-clicked, it remains selected until it is deselected (single-clicked upon) or another tool is explicitly selected. The tool Node (node_button), draws a node in the Graph View. Submodel (submodel_tool) draws a submodel, Text Box (text_box_icon) allows for creating on-screen comments, and Arc (arc_button) allows for creating an arc between two nodes.
