Workbench-Window-Icons-Tools

NEW DRAWER (Amiga-N)
Highlighting an open window and then clicking on this creates a new drawer. The default name is which the Amiga will ask you to change.

OPEN PARENT
This opens the window that you opened previously to load the program. E.g. highlighting the system window and selecting open parent will open the Workbench3.0 directory displaying all the main files.

CLOSE (Amiga-K)
This closes the currently selected window.

UPDATE
This rereads the highlighted window and updates the display to show newly created files/drawers etc.

SELECT CONTENTS (Amiga-A)
This simply highlights all the icons in the selected window.

CLEAN UP (Amiga-.)
Do you have loads of overlapping icons that look incredibly messy and horrible? Well, clean up reorganises them creating a far tidier workbench.

SNAPSHOT

-WINDOW Snapshot the highlighted window to stay in the same place every time you open it.
-ALL Snapshots the highlighted window and all the icons inside it. 

SHOW

-ONLY ICONS Only show files that have an icon attached to it. The icon files have a .info extension to the filename and can be created in IconEdit.
-ALL FILES This shows all files by giving all those that don't have an icon one depending upon their tooltype (project, tool etc).

VIEW BY

-ICON This is the default setting giving the user a graphical image of the icons in use.
-NAME This presents a list of names of all the files in the chosen directory in alphabetical order. This allows the user to find a particular program quickly and easily.
-DATE Same as above, but list in the order of date.
-SIZE Again, same as above, but listed in the order of smallest first.
