Toolbars How To Guide

A guide to the toolbars available within Well Seeker Pro.

1.0 - Introduction

Well Seeker Pro comes pre-installed with three toolbars:

  • A Well Seeker Toolbar which contains the main functions of Well Seeker

  • A Reporting Toolbar, which contains functions relating to the Drill String and Daily Reporting editors.

  • A Field Toolbar, which contains functions that Directional Drillers commonly use during drilling operations.

This document provides a guide to customizing the Well Seeker and Reporting toolbars.

2.0 - Show and Hide Toolbars

It is possible to hide or display both toolbars based on the user’s personal preference. The selection made is remembered by Well Seeker and the selected toolbars will be displayed each time the software is opened. The user can show or hide the toolbars by following the below steps:

2 - Select the Well Seeker Toolbar, Reporting Toolbar or Field Toolbar item to toggle the respective toolbars on/off.

3.0 - Removing Icons from a Toolbar

When first installed, the toolbar contains all the available options, which for some users may be too many buttons. It is possible to remove any unwanted icons by following the below step:

  1. Hold down the ALT key and then left-click the mouse key and drag the desired icon away from the toolbar. Releasing the mouse key will then cause the icon to disappear.

4.0 - Adding Icons to a Toolbar

If an icon is removed by mistake, or if the user decides to add back in previously removed icons, this can be achieved by following the below steps:

1 - Open the View menu from the Menu Bar and select the Toolbars and Docking Windows menu item.

2 - Select the Customize menu item to open the Customize dialog. Select the Commands tab.

3 - The user can then search for the desired icon by selecting the various categories on the left-hand side of the dialog. The icons relating to the selected category will be displayed in the Commands box on the right-hand side of the dialog.

4 - Once the desired icon has been identified, it can be added to the toolbar by dragging and dropping it onto the toolbar.

The toolbar can be reset back to its default setting, as per first install as follows:

1 - Open the View menu from the Menu Bar and select the Toolbars and Docking Windows menu item.
