Control Points

All elements placed on a board may be manipulated through the use of Control Points which appear as small

color-coded dots. The color-coding denotes the type and function of the Control Point. The Control Points may

be left-clicked and dragged to manipulate the shape of the drawing element. Right clicking on a Control Point

opens a menu of options relating to that Control Point.
