\textit{Toolbar:} The toolbar has tools for navigation and a tool to make the contents of the window larger or smaller. A drop-down list gives you the option of switching the view from \menu{Icon View} to \menu{List View} or \menu{Compact View}. The search icon (which looks like a magnifying glass) opens a field so you can search for a file by name.

\textit{Additional Navigation Tools:} \marginnote{If you start typing a location starting with a / character, \application{Nautilus} will automatically change the navigation buttons into a text field labeled \emph{Location}. It is also possible to convert the navigation buttons into a text field by pressing \keystroke{Ctrl+L}.} Just below the toolbar, you will see a representation of where you are currently browsing. This is similar to the history function of most browsers; it keeps track of where you are and allows you to backtrack if necessary. You can click on the locations to navigate back through the file browser.

\textit{Left Pane:} The left pane of the file browser has shortcuts to commonly-used folders. When you bookmark a folder, it appears in the left pane. No matter what folder you open, the left pane will always contain the same folders. This left pane can be changed to display different features by clicking the down arrow beside ``Places'' near the top.
