Opening Toolbars

To open a toolbar, go to the File Menu and select View -> Toolbar

Selecting any of these toolbar options will cause them to toggle. You can also bring up the toolbar menu by Right-Clicking on any open toolbar. All tools mentioned in this guide and elsewhere, can also be opened via the 'Tools' menu

Dragging and Docking Windows

To drag a window out, hover the mouse over its Title Bar and Click and Drag. The window will detach from the editor and float freely.

To dock the window simply drag it onto one of the docking icons which appear on the editor when you're dragging.
