Menu Bar

The menu strip across the top of the window holds four menus (File, License, View, and Help) and gives every menu command a predictable, named home. On Windows, each menu item carries an icon glyph beside its label.

The three License menu items act on whichever application is currently selected in the application list, so select the product's panel before you use them. See Application List.

macOS

On macOS the in-window menu strip is hidden. The same four menus appear in the native menu bar at the top of the screen instead, carrying the same items and running the same commands, without the icon glyphs. The one label difference is in the Help menu, where the About item reads About rather than About Dialog. macOS also adds items of its own to some menus: a Search field at the top of the Help menu, and Enter Full Screen in the View menu. Both come from the operating system rather than from R7.Activator, and are not documented here.
