Pan tool |
You can use this tool for a few tasks: After activating the Pan tool, you can: - Pan the image or road map by dragging. - Select an annotation by double-clicking it. - Center a location in the Image window by double-clicking that point. - End drawing mode by double-clicking the last point when using the Line, Shape, or Circle tools. - Activate drawing mode by double-clicking a line, shape, or circle so you can change the annotation. For example, you can move a line's vertices, add segments to a line annotation, or move a circle annotation. When you double-click an annotation with the Pan tool, its name is highlighted in the Workspace panel. The SPACEBAR temporarily activates the Pan tool while a measurement or annotation tool is active. This is helpful when you've already activated a tool, but need to pan the image before using that tool. |
