Functionalities

In ToolMap you have several windows providing you some extra tools or informations. They are discribed underneath.

  2. Features type and attributes

By right-clicking on a feature ID you can access to a contextual menu with the following operations:

  • Move to: center the screen on the selected feature
  • Zoom to: adjust the scale to display the selected feature on the whole screen. (this option does not work for the point type layers)

Layouts

You can access Toolmap's different layouts using the Layout option of the Window menu. These allows you to use three different kinds of windows disposition :

  • The Default layout, which is the one you get when first launching Toolmap. This is the one displayed in the User Interface Overview.
  1. The Vertical layout, which includes all the useful windows in a vertical display.
  2. The Horizontal layout, which includes the same windows than the Vertical layout but do so in the left border and the bottom of the display window.

You can freely close any of the tab you wish using the corresponding menu or reorganise your tabs by clicking and droping them where you want them to be. ToolMap will then remember your new custom layout and display it when you launch it.

You can switch back to one of the three base layouts anytime by simply selecting them again in the Window menu.
