Popup Toolbars

TIBCO Business Studio supports a composite toolbar and a component toolbar. You can enable and disable the toolbars.

The toolbars provides the following two benefits:

  • They allow you to add composite and component elements to the canvas without having to move the cursor off to the canvas to the palette.
  • They enable you to hide the palette so that the canvas has increased screen area.

The composite toolbar , which displays when the focus of the cursor is a composite, allows you to add component to the canvas. The component toolbar , which displays when the focus of the cursor is a component, allows you to add services, references, and properties to a component. The toolbars display for a few seconds and then disappear.

Enabling and Disabling Popup Toolbars

To specify whether a context-sensitive popup toolbar should display when you mouse over a composite or component:
  1. Select Window > Preferences.
  2. Click the Diagram node.
  3. Check the Show popup bars checkbox.
  4. Click OK.
