CLICK Icons Description

There are two CLICK Icons available on the CLICK Programming Software in the Classic UI. The first Icon is displayed on the left side of the Title Bar as shown below. The second Icon is displayed on the left side of the Main Menu as shown below.  The Ribbon UI only contains the first icon.

When you click on either one of these Icons , a drop down menu is displayed as shown below. Both drop down menus provide the same function selections but the Main Menu Icon provides an additional selection called Next.

For more information, click on any of the selections on the figures shown below.

Restore Selection

The Restore selection and the Restore Down Icon (located on top right corner of the window), are used to control the size of the window.  These commands work together with the Maximize command. When a Restore is made, the window will downsize itself to its previous smaller size.  When the window reduces in size, the Restore selection becomes gray indicating the selection is not available and the Restore Down Icon changes to the Maximize icon.  The Restore Icon may also be beige in color.

Move Selection

The Move command only works if the window is not in the Maximized state. This command used to Move the application window by using the keyboard arrow keys or the mouse. The Move command is located in the drop down menus as shown above.  To end the Move command, tap the Escape (Esc) key on your keyboard. After moving the application window, pressing the Enter key will leave the window in the new location, pressing the Escape key will return window back to the original location.

Size Selection

The Size command only works if the window is not in the Maximized state. This command is used to Size the application window by using the keyboard arrow keys or the mouse. When the Size command is selected, followed by tapping the Left or Right arrow keys on the keyboard, the width of the active window may be increased or decreased. When the Size command is selected, followed by tapping the Up or Down arrow keys on the keyboard, the height of the active window may be Increased or Decreased.  To end the Size command, press the Escape (Esc) key on your keyboard.

Minimize Selection

The Minimize Icon and Menu Selection are used to Minimize or reduce the size of a window so only the title bar is visible at the bottom of your screen. This allows the user to remove the window from the screen without closing it. When ready to reopen the window, click on the Maximize Icon and the window will open to the Maximum size. You may also click on the Restore Icon  to open the window to the previous size before it was minimized. The Minimize Icon may also be beige in color.

Maximize Selection

The Maximize selection and the Maximize Icon (located on top right corner of the window), are used to control the size of the window. These commands work together with the Restore command. When a Maximize is made, the window will open to a full screen size. When the window is full size, the Maximize selection becomes gray indicating the selection is not available and the Maximize Icon changes to the Restore Down Icon .

Next Selection

The Next command allows the user to toggle between opened programs. However, the Next command only works with active programs, meaning that if you have three projects opened, only those three programs will toggle.
