5.3.1. The Menu Items

[ToDo: To be written ]

When no project is open, the menu items of the Analysis mode are as shown in the table below. Note that some menu items are grayed out, because they cannot be used without a project.

If you created or opened a project, additional menu items become available, see More Menu Items.

Many functions from the menu are also available via toolbar-icons. Move the mousepointer over the icons to find a short description of the functionality (not yet available for all icons).
