Common Buttons

Touchstone displays many buttons (icons) that are common to many windows, panes, and dialog boxes. These buttons enable you to perform various operations and are contextual, that is, a button appears only when it is relevant to the task or environment at hand. The following table provides a summary of these common buttons and describes what they do. The table includes icons for all Touchstone versions.

  Some buttons have more than one look: icon and label, icon only, label only.
