For thousands of years, since the time of Euclid, the fundamental tools of geometry have been the compass and the straightedge. Sketchpad’s Toolbox includes these two tools—to construct circles and straight objects—and several other tools that allow you to select and drag objects, to construct points, to create and manipulate text and labels, and to define and manage custom tools. This section describes how to use each of the tools in Sketchpad’s Toolbox.
