Discuss the names and functions of the tools of the standard tool bar and formatting toolbar.
Standard and Formatting Toolbar
- the menu bar are the toolbars. Toolbars consist of icons that act as short-cuts to the commands found under the menus. The icons on the toolbars are organized according to function and according to the most commonly used commands in MSWord. The toolbar that usually appears directly below the menu bar is called the Standard Toolbar. The toolbar just below that is called the Formatting Toolbar. These toolbars can be customized and moved around on the screen. The option for displaying or hiding a toolbar is found under the menu item VIEW | TOOLBARS. A ToolTip (yellow tag) appears when you move the mouse over any of the icons on the toolbar. The ToolTip explains what function that particular icon performs.
The standard toolbar provides a quick shortcut to many frequently used functions. You can customize the buttons that appear on the standard toolbar using the customize toolbar menu item (under the Tools menu). The buttons available for the standard toolbar are shown below.
