Main Toolbox

Used to select general usage element selection, manipulation, and modification tools.



The Rotate View tool is a member of a “child” toolbox. When you point to this tool and hold down the Data button, a drop-down menu opens from which a tool in the child toolbox can be selected. The child toolbox can be “torn off” and floated by choosing Open As ToolBox from the drop-down menu.

When a tool is selected in a child toolbox (attached or floating), the tool automatically becomes the "representative" of the child toolbox in the Main toolbox.
