Formula Workshop buttons

The main toolbar in the Formula Workshop is made up of three smaller
toolbars. Each of these toolbars contains a set of buttons that is relevant to
specific actions: working with the Formula Workshop as a whole, working
with the Workshop Tree, or working with an editor. Individual buttons are
available or unavailable based on the task you are undertaking. Each toolbar
can be moved and docked as you require.
