[http://www.geogebra.org GeoGebra] is open source dynamic mathematics software for learning and teaching at all levels. This manual covers the commands and tools of [[Release Notes GeoGebra 5.0|GeoGebra 5.0]].
 
Depending on your hardware and preferences, you can currently choose between [[File:download-icons-device-screen.png|link=|20px]] [https://www.geogebra.org/download/ GeoGebra 5.0 Desktop] and the [[File:Download-icons-device-tablet.png|link=|20px]] [http://www.geogebra.org/cms/en/download/ GeoGebra 5.0 Web and Tablet App], which feature minor [[GeoGebra 5.0 Desktop vs. Web and Tablet App|differences]] in terms of use and interface design.
 
 
 
=GeoGebra’s User Interface=
 
==Views and Perspectives==
 
GeoGebra provides different [[Views|''Views'']] for mathematical objects:
 
 
 
{| cellpadding="10"
 
| [[File:Menu_view_algebra.svg|link=Algebra View|32px]]
 
<br>[[Algebra View|''Algebra View'']]
 
|[[File:Menu_view_graphics.svg|link=Graphics View|32px]]
 
<br>[[Graphics View|''Graphics View'']]
 
| [[File:Menu_view_spreadsheet.svg|link=Spreadsheet View|32px]]
 
<br>[[Spreadsheet View|''Spreadsheet View'']]
 
|-
 
|[[File:Menu_view_cas.svg|link=CAS View|32px]]
 
<br>[[CAS View|''CAS View'']]
 
|[[File:Perspectives_algebra_3Dgraphics.svg|link=3D Graphics View|32px]]
 
<br>[[3D Graphics View|''3D Graphics View'']]
 
|[[File:Menu_view_probability.svg|link=Probability Calculator|32px]]
 
<br>[[Probability Calculator|''Probability Calculator View'']]
 
|}
 
 
 
Each View offers its own ''[[Toolbar]]'' that contains a selection of [[:Category:Tools|''Tools'']] and range of [[:Category:Commands|''Commands'']] as well as [[Predefined Functions and Operators]] that allow you to create dynamic constructions with different representations of [[Objects|mathematical objects]].
 
 
 
Depending on the mathematics you want to use GeoGebra for, you can select one of the default ''[[Perspectives]]'' (e.g. [[File:Menu_view_algebra.svg|link=|16px]] ''Algebra Perspective'', [[File:Perspectives_geometry.svg|link=|16px]] ''Geometry Perspective''). Each ''Perspective'' displays those ''[[Views]]'' and other interface components most relevant for the corresponding field of mathematics.
 
 
 
==Other Components of the User Interface==
 
You may also customize GeoGebra’s user interface to match your personal needs by changing the default [[Perspectives|''Perspectives'']] and adding other components:
 
*''[[Menubar]]''
 
*''[[Input Bar]]''
 
*''[[Style Bar]]''
 
*''[[Navigation Bar]]''
 
*''[[Context Menu]]''
 
*''[[Virtual Keyboard]]''
 
 
 
GeoGebra’s user interface also provides a variety of [[Dialogs|dialogs]]. Different [[accessibility|accessibility features]] as well as [[Keyboard Shortcuts|keyboard shortcuts]] allow you to access many features of GeoGebra more conveniently.
