Resizing a Window

To change the size of a window:

1. Select the window to resize.
2. Place the cursor on a border or corner of the window. The cursor changes to the

drag arrow (

↔).

3. Click-and-drag the corner or border until the window is the required size.
4. Release the mouse button.

Maximizing, Restoring, and Minimizing a Window

When a window is enlarged (maximized), it fills a larger portion of the desktop or even the entire
desktop. When a window is minimized, the window becomes an icon in the Icons window.
When a window is restored, the window returns to its previous size.

To enlarge a window to its maximum size:

1. Select the window to enlarge.
2. Click on the Open button in the upper-right corner of the window.

To minimize a window:

1. Select the window to reduce.
2. Click on the Minimize button in the upper-right corner of the window.

To restore a window, from the Icons Window, double-click the icon representing the window.

Selecting Menus

Choosing an option from a menu carries out a command or opens a dialog where more
information can be entered or selected.

To select a menu option:

1. Click on the name of the menu on the menu bar.
2. Click on the option you want.

Note: If a menu or menu option has an underlined letter, select the option

by pressing Alt and the letter that is underlined instead of clicking on
it.
