What is an interactive object that you use to customize a document with your own information called?

Some tools in the toolbox are for selecting, editing, and creating page elements. Other tools are for choosing type, shapes, lines, and gradients. You can change the overall layout of the toolbox to fit your preferred window and panel layout. By default, the toolbox appears as a single vertical column of tools. You can also set it up as a double vertical column or as one horizontal row. However, you can’t rearrange the positions of individual tools in the toolbox. You can drag the top of the toolbox to move it.

Select a tool from the default toolbox by clicking it. The toolbox also contains several hidden tools related to the visible tools. Hidden tools are indicated by arrows to the right of the tool icons. Select a hidden tool by clicking and holding the current tool in the toolbox and then selecting the tool that you want.

The name of the tool and its keyboard shortcut appear when you hold the pointer over the tool—this text is called the tool tip. You can turn off tool tips by choosing None from the Tool Tips menu in Interface preferences.

Open the Tool Hints panel (choose Window > Utilities > Tool Hints) to see which shortcut and modifier keys work with the selected tool.

Content Collector and Content Placer tools are not available in CS5.5 or earlier.

   This procedure works only for some tools, such as the Eyedropper, Pencil, and Polygon tools.

1. In the toolbox, position the pointer over a tool that has hidden tools and hold down the mouse button.

2. When the hidden tools appear, select a tool.

1. When one tool is selected, hold down the keyboard shortcut of a different tool.

The Tool Hints panel describes how modifier keys work with the selected tool.
