Displaying toolbars and rulers

The toolbar appears below the command menus at the top of your screen. It contains buttons and pop-up menus that change depending on what you have selected in the work area. In addition to the main toolbar, other toolbars are available when you're logged onto a workgroup site, working with dynamic content, or working with source code in the document window.

You can display horizontal and vertical rulers in the Layout Editor to help you place and resize objects on a page with precision. When you place an object, white areas on the rulers indicate the current position and size of the selected object. When you move the pointer in the document window, lines in the rulers move along to indicate the current position of the pointer.

To show or hide the layout rulers:

Choose View > Show Rulers. (A check mark next to Show Rulers in the Window menu indicates that it is showing.)
