New Toolbar

There are two ways to create a custom toolbar. One way is to modify an existing toolbar (such as the Standard toolbar). The other way is to create a new toolbar and then proceed to add built-in tools, as described earlier, or custom toolbuttons, as described later in this chapter. This way you can leave the Standard and Formatting toolbars (for example) unmodified and display your own custom toolbar. To create a new toolbar, use the procedure in the following box. 

Choose Toolbars from the View menu and choose Customize. or choose Customize... from the Tools menu, or right-click on a toolbar and choose Customize... from the shortcut menu.

Dynamics of Adiabatic Reactors with and without Catalyst We want to show the difference in the dynamic responses between an adiabatic reactor without catalyst and one with catalyst. A plot is set up in the usual way using Tools on the top toolbar and selecting New Forms and Plot. The variables to be plotted are dragged and dropped from the feedstream and from the reactor block. The feed temperature and the reactor exit temperatures are plotted. In addition, the temperatures at several locations down the length of the reactor with catalyst are plotted the temperatures at 5, 10, and 15 m in the 20 m reactor containing the catalyst. The models of the two adiabatic reactors use 20 lumps. 

Note the availability of another Setup command button on the main toolbar of this worksheet its functionality is similar to the Setup button on the main logo sheet, but, as you can see in Figure 1.6, the SET command bar button to save the window size is replaced by a new button, the action of which is to place particular displays on this window and the others accessible using the command buttons of Figure 1.4 as considered best for a particular monitor and the sharpness of the viewer s eyes. This second command bar is included as the Setup option on the main command bar for all the worksheets accessed through the command buttons displayed in Figure 1.5. 

Macro In" box should display This Workbook if not, choose This Workbook. Enter "e" in the box for the shortcut key, then press OK. The Macro Stop toolbar will appear (Figure 13-6), indicating that a macro is being recorded. If the Macro Stop toolbar doesn t appear, you can always stop recording by using the Tools menu in the Macro submenu the Record New Macro... command will be replaced by Stop Recording. 

Select New Menu and drag it to the desired location on the toolbar. 

In this chapter you ll learn how to customize Excel s built-in toolbars and how to create new toolbuttons to simplify some of the operations that you perform often. 

Press the New... button. Enter a name for the custom toolbar (see Figure 19-4), then press OK. The (empty) custom toolbar will appear. 

Select the happyface" toolbutton (you ll create a new image for it later) and drag it to the desired location on the toolbar. 

Use the Button Editor to edit an existing toolbutton image or create a new one. First, choose Toolbars from the View menu and choose Customize... from the shortcut menu. Right-click on the toolbutton image you wish to edit to display the Toolbars shortcut menu. Choose Edit Button Image... from the shortcut menu to display the Button Editor (Figure 19-9). 

Select New under File on the top toolbar. Your building tools should appear on the right hand of the screen. 

When the calculation is finally done you can view your new, improved structure on the workspace window. This may look less like the familiar double helix structure than your initial DNA molecule, but it is actually the more stable structure in a no-solvent environment. Under Display on the toolbar, select Output. Record the final energy of the last cycle. 

Click the Fit to Screen button on the horizontal toolbar. The new structure should now be centred in the screen with the atoms visible. 

Select all the text in the file and COPY/PASTE into cell A 3 of a new worksheet, figl-9.xls. With luck, the EXCEL software will parse the pasted information into columns A and B of the worksheet. If not, open the TOOLS dropdown on the EXCEL toolbar and select the TEXT to COLUMNS option. Follow the wizard s instructions and the radial mesh data will separate in column A from the numerical wave function data, which will appear in column B. 

This exercise introduces two new features of the EXCEL software the matrix multiplication and transpose macros MMULT() and the TRANSPOSE(). These are best activated using the =/ icon on the TOOLBAR and the option to drag out the array data to be multiplied, visible in the function window. You select an equal area of blank cells on the spreadsheet and then activate the MMULT() or TRANSPOSEO macros. Note too that after selecting the particular area for each array, the sequence to enter these cell references requires CTL/SHIFT/ENTER. Otherwise, only one entry will appear in the top-left hand cell of the chosen active cells for the operation. 

The icons are here depicted as Large Buttons in New Look. It is up to you to choose small buttons in new or old look by inactivating the appropriate boxes. The new look version shows no separation between icons in a toolbar. Furthermore, note that it is useful to mark Show Tooltips, which means, if you let the cursor rest for a while on an icon, an info text will be displayed, which describes the function of the icon. You can move bars by Drag and Drop to any point of the OPUS User Interface. Find out by yourself how the toolbars change by moving to the Spectrum Window or to the Browser Window. 

The Customize dialog box Toolbars page with the newly created toolbar NEW XYZ. 

In summary, it can be useful to modify the toolbars, but remember that in the frame of OPUSDEMO you cannot save toolbars new configured. 

Select a button from the Available toolbar buttons list and click Add to add a new button. 

Next you have to indicate that you are going to build a new model. This is possible by clicking the left-most option on the toolbar of the Simulink Library Browser menu (Create a new model). Let us assume you would like to build the following model ...
