<H3>Summary:</H3>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
The <B>tool</B> command selects or queries the mode of operation
|
|
of the mouse buttons in the layout window. Each <B>tool</B>
|
|
type has a unique set of button bindings. <P>
|
|
|
|
Without arguments, the <B>tool</B> command selects the next
|
|
tool type in round-robin fashion. With a tool type as argument,
|
|
the button bindings switch to those for the indicated tool.
|
|
With the <B>info</B> option, a summary of the mouse buttons is
|
|
given for the current tool. <P>
|
|
|
|
The mouse bindings for each of the three tools is as follows:
