2.6 Viewing Documents

The View menu  contains certain commands that have to do with how a document is viewed or how it can be edited in the document itself. View commands do not actually change something in the document . The document editors have different View menu entries, but all editors share at least the following View menu commands:

•   The Refresh command (<Ctrl+V>) is the first entry in the View menu. It redraws the contents of the drawing area. This command can be needed when pixel droppings or left-overs occur in the drawing area.
•   The In-line editor toggle. Turns in-line editing on or off. In-line editing means that text editing takes place directly in drawing area whereas out-line editing means text editing takes place in a separate text edit window (see section 2.5.1). It (re)sets also its counterpart toggle in the main window.
•   The Autoresize toggle. Turns Autoresizing on or off. Autoresizing means that shapes or cells of a table adapt themselves automatically to fit the texts that they contain. It (re)sets also its counterpart toggle in the main window.
