<h1>Introducing the user interface of the Document Editor</h1>
<p>The <a href="https://www.onlyoffice.com/document-editor.aspx" target="_blank" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)"><b>Document Editor</b></a> uses a tabbed interface where editing commands are grouped into tabs by functionality.</p>
<div class="onlineDocumentFeatures">
<p>Main window of the Online Document Editor:</p>
<p><img alt="Online Document Editor window" src="../images/interface/editorwindow.png" /></p>
</div>
<div class="desktopDocumentFeatures">
<p>Main window of the Desktop Document Editor:</p>
<p><img alt="Desktop Document Editor window" src="../images/interface/desktop_editorwindow.png" /></p>
</div>
<p>The editor interface consists of the following main elements:</p>
<ol>
<li>
The <b>Editor header</b> displays the ONLYOFFICE logo, <span class="desktopDocumentFeatures">tabs for all opened documents </span>with their names and menu tabs.
<p>On the left side of the <b>Editor header</b>, the <b>Save</b>, <b>Print file</b>, <b>Undo</b> and <b>Redo</b> buttons are located.</p>
<p><img alt="Icons in the editor header" src="../images/interface/leftpart.png" /></p>
<p>On the right side of the <b>Editor header</b>, along with the user name the following icons are displayed:</p>
<ul>
<li><div class = "icon icon-gotodocuments"></div> <b>Open file location</b> - <span class="desktopDocumentFeatures">in the <em>desktop version</em>, it allows opening the folder, where the file is stored, in the <b>File explorer</b> window.</span> <span class="onlineDocumentFeatures"> In the <em>online version</em>, it allows opening the folder of the <b>Documents</b> module, where the file is stored, in a new browser tab.</span></li>

The added file is just a shortcut so the file itself remains stored in its original location. Deleting a file from favorites does not remove the file from its original location.</li>
</ul>
