Standard Windows Macros such as New, Open, Save, and Print appear at the top left of the WMS screen directly under the menus.

Many of the more frequently used menu commands can be accessed through the macro buttons to the right of the Standard Windows Macros.

These commands include from left to right above:

View Previous – redraw everything in the graphics window. Selecting the View | Previous View command of the Display, or the View Previous macro File:WMSImage012.png, restores the Graphics Window viewing parameters to those in place before the last viewing command was issued (rotate, zoom, pan, etc.). A macro for this command appears in the Macro Tool palette.
Perspective View – draw all data in a 3-Dimensional oblique view
Plan View – draw all data in plan view (looking down from above). Selecting the Display | View | Plan View menu command, or the Plan View macro File:WMSImage011.png, changes the viewing angles so that the image is displayed such that the user is looking down the z-axis with the x-axis horizontal and the y-axis vertical.
Frame – center and redraw all data in the graphics window. After altering the image display using the Zoom or Pan tools, the image can be centered by selecting the Frame Image command in the View menu. This command adjusts the window boundaries so that all currently visible objects just fit in the Graphics Window. It does not affect the viewing angle.
Display Options – set the display options
Contour Options – set the contour display options
Properties – accesses the Dataset Info dialog
Refresh – redraw everything in the graphics window
Help – accesses WMS Help
Delete – Delete selected objects (must have something selected)
