<h2>Mouse Usage Hints</h2>
<h3>View</h3>
<p>Mouse usage in Scribus has some subtle, but once learned, very useful shortcuts with the mouse.</p>
<ul>
<li>Space Bar + Left Click – toggles panning mode for the mouse</li>
<li>Click third button, or on two button mice (“chord” them by click left and right together), refreshes the view</li>
<li>Ctrl > Wheel – zooms the view in and out.</li>
<li>Ctrl > Right Button Drag – allows you to pan the document up or down and/or left to right depending on the zoom factor.</li>
<li>Right Click – brings up the Context Menu for the document canvas as shown below.</li>
</ul>
<table width="100%"><tr><td align="center"><img src="images/cmcanvas.png" title="Context Menu for the document canvas" alt="Context Menu for the document canvas" /></td></tr></table><br />
<h3>Items</h3>
<ul>
<li>Shift + Left Click – don't clear the selection but add to it</li>
<li>Alt + Left Click – allow selection of objects within groups</li>
<li>Hence, Ctrl + Shift + Left Click extends the selection with the item below the currently selected one beneath the cursor</li>
<li>Ctrl + Left Click cycles through all objects at the position from top to bottom, finally deselecting all and then starting with the top again</li>
<li>Ctrl+ Alt + Left Click will include group members in the cycle</li>
<li>Control + Left Click resize/move for lower objects. Release + drag resizes. Hold down Control + Drag moves.</li>
<li>Left Click > Drag resizes Frames</li>
<li>Right Click > Drag copies or moves Frames – a context menu will pop up asking your choice</li>
</ul>
<h3>Text Frames</h3>
<ul>
<li>Shift + Left Click – selects the text between cursor position and the click.</li>
<li>Ctrl + Double Left Click – selects the current paragraph.</li>
<li>Ctrl + Shift + Double Left Click – selects the current paragraph first, and subsequent clicks will add text between the selected paragraph and the click position to the selection.</li>
</ul>
<h3>The Color Eye Dropper</h3>
<p>Select a:</p>
<ul><li>fill color with Left Click</li>
<li>text color with Ctrl + Left Click</li>
<li>line color with Alt + Left Click.</li></ul>
<h3>In the Properties Palette</h3>
<ul>
<li>Ctrl + Wheel – increases/decreases units 10 at a time.</li>
<li>Shift + Wheel – increases/decreases units 1/10 at a time.</li>
<li>Ctrl + Shift + Wheel – increases/decreases units 1/100 at a time.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Alternatively:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Shift + Arrow Key increases/decreases units 10 at a time.</li>
<li>Crtl + Arrow Key increases/decreases units 1/10 at a time.</li>
</ul>
