Miscellaneous Icons on the Standard Toolbar
Beyond the everyday buttons, the FrontPage Standard Toolbar carries a set of miscellaneous icons that are easy to overlook. Each one is a shortcut that can save you a few steps while you work. Here is what they do.
Open
A shortcut to open a page or web if you are just getting started on the day's work. This handy icon makes it possible to close the folder list and open pages without reopening the folder list.
Save
Click this shortcut icon to quick save your work along the way. If you have made a few changes that you are sure you will like, but have a couple more changes you may not want to keep, save the first ones, then proceed with the changes you haven't decided yet to make permanent.
Publish
Click this shortcut to get to the publish web dialog box.
For more detailed instructions, see the Publish Web tutorial.
Folder List
This icon is generally pushed in. Click on it and the folder list on the left of your FP window will “go away” giving you the entire window to work in.
Simple as it can be.....push this icon to print out the page you are working on.
Preview in Browser
Just click this button to preview your page in your browser. If you have more than one browser installed, you will be given the opportunity to choose which you want to view the page in.
Spell Check
Every webmaster's helper. Spell check not only checks your spelling but also offers corrections. It can also “learn” by adding words it reports as misspellings.
Cut, Copy and Paste
- Cut: Just highlight and click to cut.
- Copy: Highlight text, image, or whatever and click this copy icon to copy the highlighted selection.
- Paste: Shortcut for paste. Just put your cursor where you want an item on your clipboard and push this icon.
Format Painter
A handy little shortcut for Format Painter. Truthfully, I just don't use it.
Undo and Redo
These two little arrows are shortcuts to the undo and redo also available via Menu Bar — Edit.
