An options menu/toolbox/toolbar is provided in each skin to make skin switching convenient and easy. For Vector (2022 and 2010), Timeless, and MonoBook, a toolbox is provided below "Tools" on the left-hand side of the screen, and for Minerva and ApiOutput, an experimental toolbar is provided across the top of the body of the page.
