Abstract
Non-modal toolbar control techniques are described. In one or more implementations, techniques are described for controlling output by one or more computing devices of a toolbar with content in a user interface in a manner that supports non-modal interaction with both the toolbar and the content. Display of the user interface is caused by the one or more computing devices, the user interface including a simultaneous display of the toolbar along an edge of the user interface adjacent to and not overlapping the content. The toolbar includes a representation of a task and a plurality of parameters associated with the task. Selection is detected by the one or more computing devices of one or more of the plurality of parameters via the user interface. Selection is also detected of the representation of the task subsequent to the selection of the one or more parameters. Responsive to the selection of the representation, the task is performed on the content by the one or more computing devices using the selected ones of the plurality of parameters.
