ETS provides two types of toolbars; The main toolbar (1), which can be used nearly anywhere, as well as the context toolbar (2), which is only shown on some panels.
Main toolbar
The main toolbar contains the following standard functions:
| Function | Description |
| Close Project | Closes the currently open project |
| Undo/Redo |
Undo and redo actions. Configuration of the maximum undo steps can be defined in the Settings. If this number is reached and there are further entries, the oldest entry is always overwritten. This function is a local function. The stored work steps can only be undone as long as a project in the actual ETS-session is opened. As soon as it is closed, all modifications will be consolidated. |
| Reports | Opens the reports panel |
| Workplace | Allows to open a new panel and rearrange the open panels |
| Catalog | Opens the catalogs panel |
| Diagnostics | Opens the diagnostics panel |
| Connection manager | Opens the connection manager (default selection 'Automatic') |
| Project details | Opens the project details of the currently opened project |
| Settings | Opens the ETS settings |
| Help | Opens the online help centre |
Furthermore, it's also possible to change the appearance of the main toolbar. To do so, right click on it. You can choose between:
