Adding a Shortcut to the Quick Access Toolbar

The Quick Access Toolbar appears at the top left of the Image-Pro application window. It allows you to display icons that, when clicked, execute a system-supplied or user-defined command.  In this way, the Quick Access Toolbar provides a shortcut to commonly used functions.

To add a shortcut to the Quick Access Toolbar:

Click the drop-down button next to the Quick Access Toolbar.

A drop-down menu appears.

Click on More Commands in the drop-down menu.

The Customize Quick Access Toolbar dialog box appears.

The list box on the left side of the dialog box displays all the available commands and icons. The list box on the right displays those commands and icons currently displayed in the Quick Access Toolbar.

The Choose commands from drop-down list displays different groups of available commands.

In the Choose commands from list box, select the desired group of commands to display in the list box. If you are unsure which commands you need, choose All Commands.

In the list box, highlight the command you want to add to the Quick Access Toolbar.

For example, if you regularly use the Paste command in Image-Pro, you can make a shortcut that performs a paste by adding a Paste command and icon to the Quick Access Toolbar.

Click the Add button and the command appears in the right hand list box.

Click on the OK button.

The shortcut is added to the Quick Access Toolbar. 

You can also add a group of commands to the Quick Access Toolbar:

Place your cursor over the title bar of the control group containing the commands you want to add to the Quick Access Toolbar.

Click the right mouse button. A pop-out menu is displayed.

Choose Add to Quick Access Toolbar.

The icon for the group appears in the Quick Access Toolbar.
