Multiple Document Interface (MDI)

Ribbon

The application now has a user-interface called the Ribbon, which replaces the toolbars and menus of previous versions of the software. This interface is designed to improve efficiency by displaying only the commands you need to complete a specific task. The Ribbon is divided into tabs that relate to a task or activity, such as managing the diagrams in a project or performing a specific analysis. Each tab contains the related commands, which are intuitively organized into groups. Depending on the activity you are in, some commands may appear dimmed or will not appear at all.

This topic is intended to serve as a comprehensive reference to the commands found on the Ribbon. Note that many features in the application also have a shortcut menu (accessed by right-clicking) that gives access to commands that are commonly used for that feature. All commands available in the shortcut menus are also available on the Ribbon. In addition, the Ribbon includes a customizable Quick Access Toolbar that allows you to display frequently used commands.

Tip: To maximize your workspace, you can choose to automatically minimize the Ribbon and display only the tab names. To do this, click the arrow on the right-side of the Ribbon (labeled "Minimize Ribbon" in the picture below). The Ribbon will be expanded when you click a tab and then minimized after you click a command.

RGA's Ribbon includes the following tabs:

The following reference is an alphabetical listing of all the contextual tabs available in RGA. Click the name of the tab to view a description of all the included commands.
