Using the Tool Palette The tool palette offers a variety of art tools and basic shapes. The shapes on the tool palette let you compose pictures quickly and easily. When you first start Paint, the Paintbrush is highlighted, indicating that it is the current default. Only one tool on the tool palette is active at a time and that tool remains active until you make another selection. To choose another tool: 1. Click MB1 on the tool you want to use. 2. Position the pointer into the drawing window and click MB1. The new tool is now active in the window. The following table, Tool Palette, describes the tools in the tool palette, starting with the Box tool in the upper left corner of the tool palette.
