The tool bar at the top of the main window contains menu buttons for the most frequently used menu options. The Toolbar from v5.3 be customized by the user at runtime. Selecting View|Customize toolbar will bring up a dialog box which enables the user to drag items on/off the toolbar. The state of the toolbar is saved to disk in %APPDATA%\ATPDraw\Toolbar.cfg if Tools|Options/General, Save toolbar state is checked. This is the same location as the ATPDraw.ini file (APPDATA (in English windows installations)= \\documents and settings\user\application data). If the file Toolbar.cfg does not exist the default toolbar as shown below appears. If APPDATA does not exist (older Windows systems, LINUX?) the ATPDraw searches the current directory for Toolbar.cfg.
