The attribute icons are not displayed unless you select the Show Attributes
command in the Options menu on the menu bar. These allow you to
modify the appearance of objects. You can create an attribute palette
(tear-off menu) by dragging an icon from the attribute icons to the
drawing window.
Clicking on the help icon A creates a help window at the bottom of your
screen that contains useful help messages for each command. Clicking
on the A again removes the help window.
Clicking on the Help menu option and selecting Help or pressing the
key toggles the help window
The selection pointer is the primary tool for selecting menus and
building constructions. The shape of the pointer changes according to its
current operation and location.
The close box closes the window and creates a dialog box that allows
you to save your work if you have not done so.
The zoom box toggles the size of the window between the current size
and the full screen size.
Dragging the size box to a new location resizes the drawing window.
Clicking in the scroll bars or on the scroll arrows moves the contents of
the drawing window vertically or horizontally.
