The active mode of operation is highlighted in the operating-mode
tab. The control differentiates between the following operating
modes:

Reference

Transfer
You can use the operating mode keys to switch between the
modes. The selected submode and the current menu position
remain when the operating mode is switched.
If you press the operating mode key in a submode, the control
switches back to the main level of the mode.
In some situations, it is not possible to switch modes
(e.g. in Tool editor operating mode).
In such cases, you need to terminate the editing
process or close the dialog before switching the
operating mode.
