Tarma Workshop contains dozens of menus and toolbars with commands that enable you to perform actions on your installation project and its contents. You will find menus and toolbars in the following places:
The remainder of this topic discusses these menus and toolbars and the ways to access them. For a full list of all commands in Tarma Installer, see Command reference. For a list of keyboard accelerators, see Keyboard shortcuts.
Tip: To get an explanation of a command, open the menu on which it appears and press the F1 key.
The main menu bar is the most obvious one: it runs across the top of the Tarma Workshop main window, just under the title bar. It contains project-wide commands such as the File commands, the Project commands, and the Help commands.
To
access the commands on this menu, you can use the following methods.
.
In those cases, more commands are available by clicking on the submenu
item. To dismiss the menu without executing a command, click somewhere
outside the menu area or press the Esc key one or more times until
all menus are closed.See the following topics for a list of the main menu commands: File Edit View Format Project Help
Each project item in your Tarma Installer project has its own private menu. (These menus are usually called popup menus because they pop up over the item in question, or context menus because their commands apply only in the context of that particular item.)
To access an item's context menu, use one of the following methods:
Tip: You can also open the item's context menu by clicking on the Commands hyperlink in the title bar of the item's attribute pane:
See Project item commands for a full list of context menu commands.
Specials menus contain commands to insert symbolic variables or other special
text strings into a text field. It appears when you click the 
button to the right of a text field:
Each menu contains commands for the special text strings that are most relevant for the associated text field. When you select one of the special menu items, the corresponding text string is inserted into the text field at the caret position. If any portion of the text field was selected before you opened the menu, the entire selection is replaced by the new text.
See Specials menu commands for a full list of the specials menus commands.
The main toolbar runs underneath the main menu bar near the top of the Tarma Installer main window:
It contains buttons for the most common commands from the main menu. It also contains a drop-down list that selects the current UI language for localized text and other resources in your project, and a drop-down list that selects the default build configuration. (The default build configuration is the one that is built if you press the F7.)
Tip: To discover which command a toolbar button represents, point the mouse cursor to it (without clicking) and hold it there. After approximately 0.5 seconds, a small tooltip appears that shows the command name, plus any keyboard shortcut associated with the command.
Most project pages also have local toolbars that contain the most common commands for the project items on that page. In operation, these per-page toolbars are the same as the main toolbar.
