The menu

- 1 ? opens and closes the panel.
- 2 The panel’s title is the topic it shows. × closes it.
- 3 Open the full guide opens the whole topic as a page, at the same place.
On a narrow window the panel opens over the screen; tap beside it or press Esc to close it.
The full guide is under Help in the menu. It starts with Getting started. The guide can also be read without signing in: on the sign-in page, choose How does this work?.
Language
The Tools Manager speaks English and German. EN and DE at the bottom of the menu switch the language straight away; on the sign-in pages they are at the top. The choice is kept on this device.
Light and dark surface
The moon or sun icon next to Light surface or Dark surface switches between a light and a dark appearance. Until you choose, the Tools Manager follows your device’s setting.
Sign out
Sign out at the bottom of the menu ends your session on this device. Sign out on shared computers.
You stay signed in otherwise, for up to 30 days of not using the Tools Manager. Signing out here does not sign you out of the tools; each tool has its own sign-out.
