2.3 General Features

Figure 2.3 illustrates some of the general features of OpenEx Pro. You can control the platform mainly through the main Menu Bar. Also, the Toolbar provides short cuts to each functional window. You can simply click on an icon to invoke the function you want. The Status Bar shows the tool tip for each toolbar icon, the current login user, current time and the state of the order host and quote host. Normally, both of the order host and quote host fields should show a green background to indicate normal network connectivity. If their background colors turned red, that means the connection to the host is off. (For detail, please read Chapter 17. Connectivity to Servers.)
