User Manual

Toolbar



The NewsReader toolbar allows you to quickly perform several actions. The large button on the left allows you to select which newsgroup you are currently viewing - this was done so that your screen isn't taken up with a large newsgroup list, and so allowing for more of the newsgroup itself, or other applications, can be fitted onto the screen easily. The icons are as follows:

The next 2 items on the toolbar are status indicators. The first indicates the current state of the selected newsgroup (unread messages, etc) and the last indicates what the Message Downloader is doing. If you click on a message and it is not stored on your hard disk, the Message Downloader will download it. This indicates the state with 2 progress bars. The top one indicates how many messages are still to be downloaded, and the bottom indicates the amount of the current message downloaded.
