Toolbars and Menus
Gnome allows for the user to configure
many settings of their desktop. Anything from the background
image to where buttons are located can be set. The
Behavior window is responsible for a lot of
the finer settings.
If you open up the Behavior window, you'll
find a few options at your disposal to make your
Gnome experience better.
Toolbar Options
The top half of the window shows you toolbar options.
In the Toolbars have section, you'll see
three options available: Icons and Text, Only Icons, Only Text.
The Icons and Text makes the toolbars display both icons and
text. While this takes up the most space, it is the most
informative.
The Only Icons options makes the toolbars show only icons. This
isn't the most descriptive, but helps save space.
The Only Text options is the most simple options. However, it
is easily the most descriptive option.
Below that option is a button called Toolbars can be
detached and moved around. This allows you to take
a toolbar off the window and place it anywhere in the screen you
wish. You can demo this in the Sample
Toolbar below. On the left side is a textured bar.
Click that and drag around the screen. That toolbar will detach
and be dropped where you let go of the cursor.
