Function editor

Toolbar

The toolbar of the Function editor provides shortcuts for some regularly used menu commands for instance to open a function, to save a function, to cut, copy and paste selections, etc.

When you leave the mouse pointer for a short period of time on top of a button, a tooltip will appear with the name of the button / the menu command that it will perform. Also the status bar at the bottom of the window may provide you with a short explanation on the effect of using the button.

You can move the toolbar and dock it along an edge of the window; you can also make the toolbar floating. Some of the actions that are available via the toolbar are also available via the context-sensitive menu.

The following actions can be performed:
