When you start KView you see the typical application layout: a workspace containing your documents (images in this case), a menubar that provides access to the various commands, a toolbar with shortcut buttons for some of them and a status bar at the bottom to display status messages. When you have the loaded an image into KView, there is also an additional context menu available which is displayed by clicking your right mouse button over the image. Below, all menu entries are explained in the order that they appear in the menubar.
