In the top right corner of a page, you will find the following:  

3. Edit Mode

Edit is the default mode when a page is first opened. In Touch, hyperlinks are disabled in Edit Mode.  To check links, or to navigate to another page from within a page, you must switch from Edit to Preview Mode.

4. Preview Mode

The editing tools are removed in Preview Mode. All the links are able to be selected, and the site can be navigated. Also, select Preview mode to see how the page will look once it is published.  

 Selecting Ctrl-Shift-M allows you to switch between Edit and Preview mode.

5) Annotate

The Annotate mode allows you to create, edit, move or delete annotations on your content. When annotations are added to a page, a number replaces the Annotate icon.

8. The H1 Heading is populated using the Title field on a newly created page. Since it is a consistently displayed page heading, it is important to note that the Title field becomes your H1, the page's default navigation label (if shown in navigation) and the Page Title (which is viewable in your browser and it is important for SEO).

9. Components are the building blocks of your pages.  All content on your page - text, images and video - are created using components. To add new components, navigate to the side panel to view the Component browser.
