Turns the command bar on and off. When you turn it on, the program prompts you for where to position the command bar on the screen.

Floating ◆ Lower ◆ Upper ◆ <Show Command Bar>: To toggle the visibility of the command bar, press Enter. To float the command bar anywhere on the screen, choose Floating. To dock the command bar near the bottom of the program window (just above the status bar), choose Lower. To dock the command bar near the top of the program window (below the toolbars), choose Upper.

To allow more screen space, move the toolbars next to the docked command bar, which reduces the width of the command bar.

When the command bar is floating, you can resize it by dragging its edges. When you stretch the height of the command bar, it displays more than three lines of text. When you press Ctrl + rotate the mouse wheel when the command bar is active, you can zoom in and out on the command bar, which changes the height (scale) of the text.
