What is the Style Bar
The Style Bar allows you to quickly and easily change a selection of basic properties of Views or objects. In order to open or close the Style Bar, either click on the little arrow next to the name of the corresponding View in GeoGebra Desktop, or click the Style Bar Button in the GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps. Please note that there are still more properties you can change using the Properties Dialog.
Style Bar Options for Views
Each View has it’s own Style Bar options. Depending on the View you select, the Style Bar displays the options most useful to this View.
Graphics View Style Bar
The Graphics View Style Bar provides buttons to
Show / Hide the Axes: You may show or hide the coordinate axes.
Show / Hide the Grid: You may show or hide the grid (GeoGebra Desktop) or select which type of grid should be shown (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).
Go Back to Default View: If the view on the Graphics View was changed before, this button sets the origin of the coordinate axes back to its default position.
Change the Point Capturing Settings: You can choose between the settings Automatic, Snap to Grid, Fixed to Grid, and Off. For more information please see Point Capturing.
Open the Properties Dialog: Open the Properties Dialog for the Graphics View or a selected object (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).
Display Views: You may display additional Views in the GeoGebra window (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).
3D Graphics View Style Bar
The 3D Graphics View Style Bar provides buttons to
Show / Hide the Axes: You may show or hide the coordinate axes, as well as the xOy-plane.- Show / Hide the Grid: You may show or hide a grid in the xOy-plane.
- Go Back to Default View: You may move the coordinate system back to the default view.
- Change the Point Capturing: You can choose between the settings Automatic, Snap to Grid, Fixed to Grid, and Off. For more information please see Point Capturing.
Start / Stop rotating the View Automatically: You may rotate the 3D Graphics View automatically and can set the direction as well as the speed of the rotation.
Adjust the View Direction: You may choose between the view towards the xOy-plane, 
xOz-plane, 
yOz-plane, or 
rotate back to the default view.
Toggle Clipping Box: You may adapt the size of the clipping box and may choose between the options None, 
Small, Medium and 
Large
Choose the Type of Projection: You may choose between a Parallel Projection, Perspective Projection, Projection for 3D Glasses, and Oblique Projection.- Open the Properties Dialog: Open the Properties Dialog for the 3D Graphics View or a selected object (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).
- Display Views: You may display additional Views in the GeoGebra window (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).
Algebra View Style Bar
The Algebra View Style Bar provides buttons to
- Show / Hide Auxiliary Objects: Toggling this button shows or hides Auxiliary Objects in the Algebra View.
- Sort Objects by: You may organize the mathematical objects according to the following criteria:
- Dependency: The mathematical objects are organized as Free Objects and Dependent Objects. If you create a new object without using any other existing objects, it is classified as a Free Object. If your newly created object was created by using other existing objects, it is classified as a Dependent Object.
- Object Type: By default, the mathematical objects are organized by Object Types (e.g. Angles, Lines, Points), which are displayed in alphabetical order.
- Layer: The mathematical objects are organized according to the layer they are drawn on. For more information see Layers.
- Construction Order: The mathematical objects are organized by construction order.
CAS View Style Bar
The CAS View Style Bar provides the following buttons:
- FormatText: Click on the button in order to change the Text Color and set the style to Bold or Italic.
- Virtual Keyboard: Display a virtual keyboard in a separate window (GeoGebra Desktop).
- Views: Display additional Views in the GeoGebra window (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).

- Show Input Bar: Toggling this button shows or hides the Input Bar at the top of the Spreadsheet View (GeoGebra Desktop).
- Bold: Set the font style to bold.
- Italic: Set the font style to italic.
- Text Alignment: Set the text alignment to Left, Center, or Right.
- Background Color: Change the background color of a cell.

Style Bar Options for Tools and Objects
Depending on the Tool or existing object you select, the Style Bar offers a selection of buttons to change the following properties of either the selected object(s) or the object(s) you are about to create using the selected Tool:
- Point Style: You may choose between different point styles (e.g., dot, cross, arrow, diamond) and set the point size.
- Line Style: You may choose between different line styles (e.g., dashed, dotted) and set the line thickness.
- Color of Object: You may set a different color for the selected object.
- Color and Transparency of Object Filling: You may choose the color and transparency of the filling for the selected object.
- Text Style: You may set the Text Color, Background Color, Text Style (bold, italic), and Font Size for a text object.
- Labelling Settings: You may choose from the following Labelling settings
- Hidden: No label is displayed.
- Name: Only the name of the object is displayed (e.g., A).
- Name & Value: Name and value of the object are shown (e.g., A = (1, 1)).
- Value: Only the value of the object is displayed (e.g., (1, 1)).
- Caption: You may display a caption that differs from the name or value of the object (e.g., if you want to give several objects the same label) and can be specified in the Properties Dialog.
- Absolute Position on Screen: You may fix an object (e.g. a text box) in the screen so that it is not affected by moving the (3D) Graphics View or zooming (GeoGebra Desktop).
- Views: You may display additional Views in the GeoGebra window (GeoGebra Web and Tablet Apps).
