X-Itools menu bar

Description

Creenshot above is the main X-Itools window.

This window is composed of several buttons, each is a module accessible by the user or not according to his right and permissions. This window can be extended in order to display futur modules or shortcuts to your favorite web applications (objects of the Links tab). Buttons containing HTML links open, if clicked, new windows with the corresponding application. Other buttons (here containing black text) contain some modules which are currently under development or which will be created in the upcoming futur.

Two running modes:

- The menu bar is totally detached in an independant popup window. Each time the user click on a button to access to a specific module, it is loaded in another browser window;
- or the menu bar is displayed in the main window of your browser, in a frame. This is what shows the second screenshot, where we can see the menu bar on the left of the window, and the shared agenda module in the main window. This is the default working mode, and of course the good thing is that a new window will not be opened each time the user click on a button to access a module.

If the menu bar is detached in an independant popup window, it can be moved to a corner of your screen either as it is shown here (a table of X buttons per line and N lines) , which means horizontally, or vertically (only one column of N buttons). For that, just click on the 'Vertical' or 'Horizontal' link.

The buttons of this window can be personnalized in the user preferences module. Then, the user can decide to not see one or other button, and then obtain a menu bar of a smaller size. The user can only see the buttons of the modules he use very often.
