Main Menu
MapCreate's main menu is similar to that of other Windows programs.
It consists of the File, Edit, Insert, Tools, View, Window and Help
menus. You can click with a mouse or use the hot keys to access the
menus and their submenus. For example, to see all the commands on
the File menu, use the mouse pointer to click

and press the hot keys

Alt+F

. Some commands also have shortcut keys,

such as

keys and shortcut keys — are listed alphabetically in the online
Command Reference section.

Toolbar
The toolbar contains a row of buttons that you can click to execute
various commands. You can move the mouse pointer over a button and
a pop-up tool tip box shows the button name.
