About the Alias Interface
The main parts of the Alias interface are:
- the Palette (location can be customized)
- the Menu Bar, located at the top
- the Window Area, taking up most of the interface and located in the middle (this area may or may not contain view windows when you first start Alias).
- the Shelves (location can be customized)
- the Control Panel, (location can be customized)
If the Palette or Shelves are not visible, choose Windows > Palette or Window > Shelves from the Menu Bar.
Note:
The images in this section have the Icon Labels visible to make it easier to recognize each tool by its name. Icon Labels are turned off, by default, but this setting can be changed in Preferences > General Preferences under the Interface options.
