<h2>4.10 Mouse shortcuts</h2>

<p>





For the beginner, choosing a selection or transformation mode and
working with the left mouse button is easiest. Frequent Ipe users
don't mind to remember the following shortcuts, as they allow you to
perform panning, and transformations without leaving the current mode:
<div align="center"><p>
<table border><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" align="LEFT">

</td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> Left Mouse      </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> Middle Mouse </td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="1" align="LEFT">
Plain       </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> (*)             </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> move         </td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="1" align="LEFT">
Shift       </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> (*)             </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> pan          </td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="1" align="LEFT">
Ctrl        </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> stretch         </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> rotate       </td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="1" align="LEFT">
Ctrl+Shift  </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> scale           </td><td colspan="1" align="LEFT"> move horizontal/vertical</td></tr></tbody></table>

</p></div>
The fields marked (*) depend on the current mode.  
<p>The right mouse button is used to select objects (just like the left
mouse button would do when in <em>Select</em> mode).  Holding the
Control key when pressing the right mouse button brings up the object
menu.
<p>If you have to use Ipe with a two-button mouse, you obviously cannot
use the shortcuts for moving, panning, and rotating, and will have to
use the mode buttons.  In all other situations where you would normall
use the middle mouse button (for instance, to move a vertex when
editing a path object), you can hold the Shift-key and use the right
mouse button.
