General Toolbar Behavior

The toolbar context menu described in Section 4.3.6 ― The Context Menu for Sheet Tabs can be used to determine where each toolbar (above the sheets, to the left of the sheets, or to the right of the sheets) is being displayed. The Toolbars submenu of the View menu (see Section 4.2.4 ― The View Menu) can be used to determine which toolbars are visible.

If the Gnumeric window is too small to fit all of the toolbar buttons, Gnumeric displays an arrow to indicate that there are more options. If the user clicks on this arrow, a window will open with the remaining buttons as shown in Figure 4-33.

Certain toolbar options, such as the zoom box, are combinations of a button or text entry area and a downward pointing arrow. If the user clicks on the arrow, a list of available options appears.
