Chapter 4: Quick Start
Cursor Shapes
The cursor shape will change based on the key/mouse combination that applies at its current position. Below are
the various cursor shapes:
Arrow Pointer:
This default cursor indicates that whatever is under it will be selected, be it a button, carving or a
board. Left-click and drag on a board to draw a box for selecting multiple items.
Magnifying Glass:
Click to zoom the view into a particular spot. Use the CTRL key to zoom out the view (The Right
Mouse buton will also zoom out as well when selected).
Crosshair:
This cursor indicates that a new gure or vertex will be placed onto the board, according to the
currently selected tool. In most cases, the placement may be canceled by pressing the ESC key or
clicking the middle or right button on the mouse.
Pointing Hand:
This cursor typically appears over a control point, and indicates that the control point will be
manipulated when left-clicked and dragged. More information about Control Point may be found in
the Drawing section.
Movement Arrows:
These arrows indicate that the line, vertex, or gure underneath the cursor will be moved when
left-clicked and dragged. More information about manipulating gures may be found in the
Drawing section.
Forbidden:
This indicates that no left-click action is available at the cursor’s location, and is typically seen when
the currently selected tool does not apply at the mouse location, such as when the cursor is in the
empty space around a board.
Up Arrow:
This cursor appears while selecting an edge during the placement of a new attachment. More
information about attachments may be found in the Drawing section.
