Tool Configuration...
The
Tool Configuration...
command allows teachers to configure Cabri Geometry II tools in the
toolbar to the aptitude of their class. You can rearrange or remove any tool in the toolbar. You can
place a tool configuration file in the preferences folder to automatically open Cabri Geometry II
with the tool configuration specified in that file. The following steps show you how to customize
your toolbar.
1.
Select
Tool Configuration
in the
Options
menu.
2.
To remove any tool from its current toolbox, select the tool.
The tool becomes attached to the pointer.
3.
To relocate the attached tool to an existing toolbox, open any toolbox.
The relocated tool is inserted immediately below a tool that you highlighted with the cursor.
The tool will be copied to the top of the toolbox if you do not highlight another tool.
4.
To relocate the attached tool in a new toolbox, click in any empty section of the toolbar. To
remove the tool from the toolbar, click on the toolbar trash can.
5.
To add spaces between a toolbox or tool, press the spacebar while pressing and holding the
mouse button down. You can add up to five spaces between toolboxes or tools.
To remove spaces between a toolbox or tool, press the
BACKSPACE
key while pressing and
holding the mouse button down.
6.
Add a password to prevent the tool configuration from being changed inadvertently.
7.
Save your new tool configuration. If you save it to a tool configuration file, you can use the
same configuration in future sessions of Cabri Geometry II. Otherwise, the configuration is
only valid for the current session. If you want to return the tool configuration back to the
factory configuration, click on the
Factory Settings
button.
