Moving and resizing control bars

You can drag control bars and anchor them to different parts of the Xara LX window or convert them into windows which can be moved around. You can also change the size of a floating control bar.

To move a control bar

1. Place the mouse pointer over an area of the bar not occupied by buttons or fields.

2. Drag the bar to its new location.

As the bar is dragged it has either a thick or a thin outline. A thick outline means dropping the bar will leave it floating in its own window. A thin outline indicates that dropping the bar will become anchored to the edge of the window. If you want the bar to remain floating, hold down CTRL while dragging.

To resize a floating control bar

1. Move the mouse pointer over the edge of the control bar window. The mouse pointer changes to a double ended arrow.

2. Drag to resize the control bar.
