The following table lists the buttons which are available by default on the toolbar.

Using different mouse modes

When you click one of the buttons on the Toolbox toolbar, you will change into another mouse mode. The button that has been selected will appear clicked, thereby showing you which is the active mouse mode.

You can also recognize the active mouse mode by the form the mouse pointer has on an image document. Each mouse mode has a different mouse pointer.
