The Tools toolbar normally appears between the Organiser and the current page displayed in the work area.

This contains tools to add content objects to a page in your publication

The objects you can add to a page are: Text, Images, Buttons, Frames, Drawn Objects, Video, Slideshows, Sound, Animation Paths, Timelines, Browser, List Box, and a DocView.

Other tools allow you to add scrollbars, set scale or resize mode, select the zoom and crop tools.

Tools with similar effect or purposes are grouped into flyout menus. Click the arrow next to the tool icon to show the available sub-tools for that tool.

This is also used to display different settings/styles for the tool or to allow you to create component objects and place them on your toolbar.

In Creator you can also customise the tools with bespoke styles of objects.
