The Application Bar

At the very top of the Application Frame is a row of tools called the Application bar (Figure 1-2), which gives you one-click access to handy stuff like Adobe Bridge (covered in Appendix C, online), extras (guides, grids, and rulers), zoom controls, and
more. The real gems, though, are the Arrange Documents menu and the new Live
Workspace buttons (shown in Figure 1-1 and discussed on page 18). The Arrange Documents menu lets you organize your open documents so you can see them all at one time, which is handy for evaluating before and after versions of images or just managing a bunch of open windows (more on that in Chapter 2!). A new option in CS5 is the CS Live button on the far right, which launches the new communitydriven help system you’ll learn about in Appendix B, online.

The Application bar gives you quick access to both Bridge and Mini Bridge (see Appendix C, online), as well as the Arrange Documents (page 67), Zoom level (page 60), and Screen Mode (page 16) options.
In the Windows version of Photoshop CS5, the Application bar is also home to all the program’s main menus (File, Edit, Image, Layer, and so on); in the Mac version, those menus appear at the top of your screen instead.
