32 <P>The main window consists of four areas, the <A HREF="2_5_folder_pane.html">folder
33 pane</A>, <A HREF="2_4_file_pane.html">file pane</A>, <A HREF="2_6_image_pane.html">image
34 pane</A>, and the <A HREF="2_7_status_bar.html">status bar</A>. The
35 status bar is always at the bottom of the window. The three remaining
36 areas, or panes, can be arranged and sized by the user.</P>
37 <P><U>Selecting the location of each pane</U></P>
38 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The arrangement of the folder, file,
39 and image pane is selected on the <A HREF="10_3_window.html">Windows
40 tab</A> of the Options window. There are four choices for the layout,
41 the difference is that each has the larger pane in a different
42 location: right, bottom, left, and top.</P>
43 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The order in which the panes are
44 filled is determined by the three row list located below the layout
45 selection. The three numbered rows correspond to the three numbered
46 regions of the selected layout, to change the order of the list drag
47 a row to the desired location within the list. To drag a row move the
48 mouse over the selected row, press and hold the primary mouse button,
49 then drag the row to the desired location and release the button.</P>

54 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">Between the panes of the main window
55 are two dividers that can be moved with the mouse to adjust the size
56 of each pane. Press and hold the primary button, then move the
57 divider to the desired location and release the button.</P>

59 <P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">The <A HREF="2_5_folder_pane.html">folder
60 pane</A> contains the menu bar, tool bar, path entry, and folder
61 list. The list can be set to display the sub folders of the active
62 folder or a tree that starts with the root folder and contains all
63 folders in the file system.</P>
