The toolbars in WindowMaker allow quick access to commands that are commonly used. When you start WindowMaker, by default, all toolbars are shown. Use the View menu to manage toolbars and to show or hide any of the toolbars.
You can float or dock a toolbar by dragging it. When you show a docked toolbar that was hidden, it reappears in its last docked location in the window. You can move any toolbar from its default docked position to any other location within the development window. Floating toolbars have title bars and they allow you to change their size.

As you move the cursor, a box appears to indicate the size the toolbar when you release the mouse button.
