Selecting Tools

The toolbox contains tools for creating and editing images. You can use them to paint, draw, and view various parts of your images, for example. To view information about a tool, rest the pointer over it. A tool tip appears showing the name and keyboard shortcut (if any) for that tool (Figure 1.27). Additional information about the tool also appears on the Hints palette; see “Using the Hints Palette” later in this chapter.

Figure 1.27. Hover the pointer over any tool icon to see a tip that displays the tool’s name and keyboard shortcut.
