Top bar description
The top bar is located at the top of the display presentation and stretches from the far left to the far right. The top bar gives you fast access to key functionality and navigational information. It provides buttons for hiding and showing the menu, making screen captures, opening the Messages dialog box, and opening context-sensitive help. And more importantly, from the top bar you can see when data recording is active.
