 | GoToolCreating Constructor | This constructs a modeless creation tool that has no Prototype object. |
Public Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | Active | Gets or sets whether this tool is in the process of drawing a new object. |
| AutoScrolling | Gets or sets whether dragging the mouse near the edges of the view should cause the view to scroll automatically. |
| CurrentObject | Gets or sets this tool's CurrentObject property. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| FirstInput | Gets this view's FirstInput property. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| LastInput | Gets this view's LastInput property. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| MaximumSize | Gets or sets the maximum size for the NewObject, as computed by ComputeBox. |
| MinimumSize | Gets or sets the minimum size for the NewObject, as computed by ComputeBox. |
| Modal | Whether this tool can be used to implement an object-creating mode for a GoView, or whether this tool can be get started when appropriate as one of the GoView.MouseMoveTools. |
| NewObject | Gets or sets the GoObject that is a copy of the Prototype that will be added to this view's document in DoCreate. |
| OneShot | Whether this tool automatically stops itself on a mouse up event. |
| Prototype | Gets or sets the GoObject that should be copied, sized, and positioned by this tool. |
| ResizesSelectionObject | Gets or sets whether the NewObject or the NewObject's GoObject.SelectionObject has its Bounds set to the value returned by ComputeBox. |
| Selection | Gets this view's Selection property. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| SnapsToGrid | Gets or sets whether the result of ComputeBox heeds the view's grid by calling GoView.GoView.SnapPoint. |
| TransactionResult | Gets or sets whether to abort the current transaction if this tool is stopped; if set to a string, the string specifies the name of the transaction that will be finished when the tool stops. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |

Public Methods
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | CanStart | Overridden. This tool, when used modelessly, does not start when the user is using the context button or when the mouse is over an object in the document. |
| ComputeBox | Compute the Bounds for the NewObject, given the initial and current positions of the mouse. |
| CopyPrototype | This method is called to create the NewObject by making a copy of the Prototype. |
| DoCancelMouse | Overridden. If Modal and not OneShot, the current NewObject is removed but this tool remains active to allow further object creations; otherwise this tool is stopped. |
| DoClick | Any tool can call this method in order to implement the standard click behavior. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| DoCreate | Add the NewObject to this view's document. |
| DoKeyDown | Overridden. When Modal is true and OneShot is false, handle Ctrl-Z and Ctrl-Y for undo and redo. |
| DoMouseDown | Overridden. A mouse-down activates this tool so that a mouse-move causes the Prototype object to be copied as the NewObject. |
| DoMouseHover | The view calls this method after the mouse rests for a while at a point; all of the event information is provided by the LastInput property. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| DoMouseMove | Overridden. Create and resize the NewObject that is added to this view. |
| DoMouseUp | Overridden. A mouse-up calls DoCreate to add the NewObject to the view's document. |
| DoMouseWheel | The view calls this method as the mouse wheel rotates; all of the event information is provided by the LastInput property. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| DoSelect | Any tool can call this method in order to implement the standard selection behavior for a user click. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| IsBeyondDragSize | Determine if the mouse has gone beyond the DragSize distance to be considered a drag instead of a sloppy click. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| Start | Overridden. Starting this tool starts a transaction covering all of the changes made until this tool is stopped. |
| StartTransaction | Start a transaction on the view. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| Stop | Overridden. Stopping this tool will remove the temporary NewObject from the view, if it had not yet been added to the document. |
| StopTool | This method just causes the view's current tool to be stopped and to start the view's default tool instead as the current tool. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
| StopTransaction | Stop the current transaction, aborting it if TransactionResult is null. (Inherited from Northwoods.Go.GoTool) |
