You can make the standard toolbar (found just under the Visual C++ title bar), or any other toolbar docked or floating. In docked mode, a toolbar is fixed to any of the four borders of the application window. You cannot modify the size of a toolbar when it is docked.
In floating mode, a toolbar has a thin title bar and can appear anywhere on your screen. A floating toolbar is always on top of all other windows. You can modify the size or position of a toolbar when it is floating.
To change a docked toolbar into a floating toolbar:
•
Click (keep left mouse button depressed) on the title bar or to a blank area in the toolbar.
•
Drag the toolbar away from the dock to any position you desire.
To dock a floating toolbar:
•
Click (keep left mouse button depressed) on the title bar or to a blank area in the toolbar.
•
Drag the toolbar to any of the four borders in the application window.
To position a floating toolbar over a docked toolbar:
•
Click (keep left mouse button depressed) on the title bar or to a blank area in the toolbar.
•
Depress the ctrl key, and drag the toolbar over any docking area within the application window.
