+>Toolbars</title>
+
+<para
+>When &kde; is newly installed, &konqueror;'s window contains a Menubar, Main and Location Toolbars and possibly a Bookmark Toolbar.</para>
+
+<para
+>Maybe you don't need all these toolbars. To hide one of them, go into the <menuchoice
+><guimenu
+>Settings</guimenu
+><guisubmenu
+>Toolbars</guisubmenu
+> </menuchoice
+> menu and uncheck its box. To show a hidden toolbar, just check the box.</para
+>
+
+<para
+>The Menubar itself can be toggled on and off with the shortcut key combination <keycombo action="simul"
+>&Ctrl;<keycap
+>M</keycap
+></keycombo
+>. </para>
+
+<!-- FIXME -->
+<para
+>On the left hand end of each bar you can see some vertical lines. By &LMB; clicking on them, you <quote
+>flatten</quote
+> the bar, meaning that it is hidden but can be quickly restored by clicking on the now horizontal lines. You can also drag a bar into a new position with these lines.</para>
+
+<para
+>If you <mousebutton
+>right</mousebutton
+> click on a Toolbar, you will get a menu to configure this bar. You can choose the orientation, text position and icon size</para>
+
+<para
+>The icons shown in the various bars can be changed by using the <menuchoice
+><guimenu
+>Settings</guimenu
+> <guimenuitem
+>Configure Toolbars...</guimenuitem
+></menuchoice
+> option, which brings up the <guilabel
+>Configure Toolbars</guilabel
+> dialogue box. The Main and Extra Toolbars are divided into sections, such as Main Toolbar &lt;&konqueror;&gt;, Main Toolbar &lt;khtmlpart&gt; and Extra Toolbar &lt;khtmlsettingsplugin&gt;. The number and type of these sections will depend on whether &konqueror; is in Web Browser or File Manager mode and whether you have &konqueror; plugins installed.</para>
