The Windows Menu

 

You can use this menu to switch between document windows and to show or hide the Time palette, Planet palette, and Mouse info window.


Scrollbars

You can turn off the scrollbars by selecting this menu command. Since you can navigate within a window so easily with the hand grabber tool, some people may wish to turn off the scrollbars for aesthetic reasons, especially during a presentation. Selecting the command again will toggle the scrollbars back on.


Toolbar (Windows only)

Toggles the Toolbar open and closed. If you wish the Toolbar to be off by default, select Toolbar under the Window menu, thereby turning it off. Then select Save Options As Default. From now on, all new windows that you open will not show the Toolbar as a default. (You can still turn it back on via the Window menu as desired.)


Hide Floating Palettes

This menu command toggles on and off all the currently open floating palettes.


Time

Toggles the Time Palette open and closed. For a more in depth discussion of time and how it affects Starry Night, see the Time chapter.


Planets

Toggles the Planet Palette open and closed.


Mouse Info

Toggles the Mouse Info palette open and closed.
