Behavior. The Segment up and down arrows increase or decrease the segment number by one. The Vertex up and down
arrows increase or decrease the vertex by 1. To set a specific number, click in the Vertex entry box to activate the pop-up
calculator.
Clicking the Add button adds a point to the boundary in the selected segment and just after the selected vertex in addition to
moving any points that follow the newly added point in the boundary up one. For example, if there are 6 points in the boundary of
the selected segment and you add a point when the selected vertex is 4, then the vertex which was 4 becomes vertex number 5,
number 5 becomes 6, and vertex 6 is changed to vertex 7.
Clicking Del deletes the selected vertex from the selected segment and moves any points that follow the deleted point down one
in the boundary. Clicking Del All deletes all points in the selected segment, effectively deleting that segment.
Clicking the Setup button will return you to the Masks Testing control window. Clicking the Controls button will activate the User
Mask Edit control window where you can make quick changes to a User mask.
