Don t like the way the toolbars are arranged? You can move them around on-screen any place  you like. The toolbars are dockable , which means that you can remove them from their current place beneath the menu bar and put them someplace else. To do this, click the small column of horizontal lines at the left end of the toolbar and drag toward the center of the work area to release it; then place the toolbar wherever you want. You might want to put the toolbar along the right edge or just leave it, palette- style, in your document window. You can resize the toolbar by dragging an end of the toolbar toward its center.
