Tool Tabs are the sets of related tools that include some of Capture One’s most common and frequently used features. They are located at the top-left corner of the user interface.
Each Tool Tab contains a number of tools. Each tool has its own set of controls to adjust a selected image file or multiple files. It is possible to place any of those tools either into a pinned or a scrollable section within the Tool Tab. Move the tools between sections by dragging them or using a submenu.
The Toolbar can be customized to display a set of controls to suit your needs.

I have not figured out a way to rename a custom tool tab's title, which is really unfortunate. Do I have to start from scratch?
