Familiarity Anyone?

[ LiB ]

This book spends a lot of time talking about keyboard shortcuts and other time-saving operations. However, we haven't yet talked about setting up something familiar. For many of us, toolbars are what we're used to. Look at MS Word for example. Of course we have the drawing toolbar, but there are others as well. Go to Window > Toolbars and enable both the Main and Controller toolbars.

These two toolbars will bring back familiar tools like Save and Open, as well as a very handy VCR-style controller for your Timeline. Use this to control the playback of your active Timeline without having to export or publish. The playback won't be as accurate, but it certainly helps. Sometimes it just feels good when you see old friends.
