= Components of the game window =
The official EL website has a [http://www.eternal-lands.com/page/interface.php nice overview of the interface]. 
The different components and their uses are discussed below.

== Toolbar ==
At the bottom of the game window you have a tool-bar with buttons for shortcuts to frequently used tools. Most of these are also accessible through shortcut keys.

1. Walk icon,
2. Sit/stand toggle (alt+s),
3. eye (look at),
4. use,
5. use with,
6. trade,
7. fight,
8. Inventory (ctrl+i),
9. Spell window (ctrl+s),
10. Manufacture window (ctrl+m),
11. Emotes,
12. Questlog,
13. Map (TAB key),
14. Notepad/URL (ctrl+n),
15. Buddy list (ctrl+b),
16. Stats (ctrl+z gives session window),
17. Console (F1 or ~),
18. Help window (ctrl+h),

== Status bars ==
Above the Tool-bar you have a status bar, showing your ethereal points (mana, blue), food level (yellow), health points (red) and carry capacity (emu, brown). To the right of these items you can have the action points (magenta) and up to four skill bars. The first bar can be selected by clicking on the skill (left mouse button) in the skills list. Additional bars can be selected by using shift+left-mouse-button.

== Chat and channels ==
[[File:Channels.png|none]]

== Sidebar ==

[[File:Sidebar.png|right]]
=== Quick inventory ===
Allows you quick access to the first 6 (horizontal) inventory slots of the inventory window without needing to open it. It's possible to mix using this to feed yourself, but it spams your chatlogs.

=== Quick spellbar ===
You can add spells that you can cast from the magic window, and use Alt+[No. downwards] or click on it to cast the spell.

=== Stats ===
The Stats sidebar can be customised to show bars (how much [[experience]] to the next level) and Levels you possess in each skill

=== Compass and clock ===
The time can be toggled on/off, as well as toggling on/off the seconds unit.

From this context menu you can
* Print items to console (chat-log file)

[[File:User Menus.png|none]]
This [[User menus|User Menu]] is stored in a file ''text.menu'' in your Eternal Lands data directory (Eternal Lands/main/text.menu) and can be edited with a text editor (do not try this with notepad, it makes a mess, use a real plain text editor like [http://liquidninja.com/metapad/ metapad] and make sure you do not save with a different or extra extension like .txt). The source code of this file is given below. Items that need additional input, such as 
<nowiki>Accept...||#accept <Player Name> </nowiki> 
will produce a pop-up window in which the requested data can be entered.
