WINDOWS
The Laser Lock program is provided in a Windows software format that allows operators to manage work easily and efficiently. All
work applications appear on Windows which are basically large rectangular areas on screen. Most Windows have certain elements in
common, for example: Title Bar, Menu Bar, etc. Not all Windows, however, have every element.
In addition to elements that appear on a Window, there are other elements that appear along right side or bottom edge of Window.
Such elements vary from one Window to another.
Figure 33 identifies some of the basic elements that appear either directly on Windows or at the right side or bottom edge of Windows.
Elements identified on the illustration are described below. The illus- tration displayed is representative of an Initial Inspection Window
(Base Reference Entry).
To work within a Window, operators have option of using the Keyboard or Mouse or a combination of the two. Specific information on
using these devices appears on Pages 30 through 32 and in Laser Lock on-line Help Text.
Title Bar — Identifies Window. (Located across top of Window.)
Menu Bar — Identifies Menu Headings. (Located across top of page below Title Bar.)
