In Windows, MX toolbars generally act the same as standard Windows toolbars. MX toolbars have the following characteristics:
In the 4 workspace, which refers to the traditional or classic look of the interface, where the user manages separate, floating windows, toolbars dock inside the document window. In classic mode, each window has its own set of toolbars. If you undock a toolbar, it is visible only when its document is in front.
In the MX workspace (also known as multiple document interface [MDI] mode ), which integrates all the document windows within a single parent frame, you can specify whether toolbars dock to the MX workspace frame or to the document window.
For toolbars that dock to the MX workspace frame, there is only one instance of each toolbar. In this case, the toolbars always operate on the document in front. In the MX workspace, you can dock toolbars above, below, or to the left or right of the Insert toolbar. Toolbars that are attached to the MX workspace frame do not automatically disable when there is no document window. The toolbar items determine whether they are enabled when no document is open.
Toolbars that stay docked to the document window work the same as toolbars in the 4 workspace. There is one instance for each window. Toolbars that are attached to a document window, in either the 4 workspace or the MX workspace, completely disable themselves when their window is not the front document, and re-run all their update handlers when their window comes to the front.
You cannot drag and drop toolbars between the document window and the MX workspace frame.
On the Macintosh, toolbars are always attached to the document window. They can be shown or hidden from the menu, but you cannot drag and drop them, rearrange them, or undock them.
