Tools palette

Used to place dialog items. Items are placed with generic names and sizes. Names and other item attributes can be changed using the methods described in Item Attributes. Item sizes and positions can be manipulated in the Dialog items list box (not labeled).

The default item placement mode is single shot; that is, if you single-click the item placement tool, only one occurrence of the item can be placed before Builder reverts to the item selection tool. However, if you double-click an item placement tool, Builder enters a mode where every data point placed in the dialog creates another occurrence of the item. Reset returns to the item selection tool.

Opens along with the Builder dialog box when Forms > Edit is chosen from the Visual SQL Query Builder dialog box, or when Options > Tools is chosen from the Builder dialog box.
