By default you can find the main toolbars (Layer, Property, Styles, Drawing and Edit) directly anchored to the top or left side of the software interface with Workspace “Classic”. On the left side, instead, you can find the property palettes snd on the right side the Tool Palette. You can customize all the interfaces as you need. All the toolbars can be easily dragged inside the drawing area and then anchored where you want.

In the "Format" menu you can also find the command "Toolbar" that allows you to show the toolbars you most frequently work with or hide those you don't need.
