Û  GraphVision windows

    Working in the GraphVision environment,
you often have a number of windows opened.
A window is a screen area that you can
open, close, move, resize, zoom and
overlap.  There are several types of
windows in GraphVision, but most of them
have the following common elements:

        ú Title bar
        ú Close box
        ú Zoom box
        ú Minimize box

    There are also scrollbar, toolbar,
speed buttons, etc. for special windows.


Û  Window elements

    The title bar, the topmost horizontal
bar of a window, contains the name of the
window (sometimes associated with a
filename).  You can drag the title bar to
move the window around.

    The close box of a window is the box
in the upper left corner.  Click this box
to quickly close the window.

    The zoom box of a window appears in
the upper right corner.  If the button in
that corner is an up arrow, you can click
the button to enlarge the window to the
largest size possible.  If the icon is a
double-headed arrow, the window is already
at its maximum size.  In this case, click
it to return the window to its previous
size.

    The minimize box is on the left side
of the zoom box. It appears as a down arrow
button.  Click this to shrink the window to
the smallest size possible.  To return to a
normal size, click the zoom box.
