Remarks

An instance of this tool is the first tool in the default GoView's GoView.MouseDownTools list.

A mouse down activates the IGoActionObject under that mouse point. The object can use the setting of the IGoActionObject.ActionActivated property to true to render differently. For example, a GoButton will appear "pressed".

A mouse move will invoke IGoActionObject.OnActionAdjusted. The object can use this notificaton to track the user's mouse in adjusting the state of the object. For example, a knob's direction and value can follow the mouse over a range of values.

A mouse up will invoke IGoActionObject.OnAction. The object can use this notification to perform some action. A button can actually do some work; a knob could actually set the new value in the document.
