Std Base

Introduction
The Std Base is not a real workbench. This page just collects all commands from the base system which do not belong to a specific workbench, but which may be used in all of them.

The base commands and functions normally start with the prefix, indicating that they are "standard".

Tools
Most of the commands in this page can be accessed from menus, toolbars, and context menus.

Standard menu
The standard menu is composed of 7 sub-menus:


 * The File menu provides commands related to file input and output, such as Open, Print, Export, etc.
 * The Edit menu provides commands to change the model, such as Copy, Paste, etc.
 * The View menu provides commands to change the 3D view and the view properties of objects in the model, and commands related to the display of interface components.
 * The Tools menu provides commands for debugging models, customizing FreeCAD's behavior, as well as auxiliary commands.
 * The Macro menu provides commands related to the recording and execution of macros
 * The Windows menu allows switching and rearranging of the Main view area windows.
 * The Help menu provides access to the help system and links to the website and forum.
