Controls in the Shapes Tab

The Shapes tab has the following controls:

Current Secondary pop-up menu: Lists which of the eight available tabs in the Secondaries

room is the currently selected secondary operation, but you can choose any secondary
tab from this pop-up menu prior to making an assignment. When you click the Attach
button, this is the secondary tab that the currently selected shape will be attached to.

Attached Shape: When you select a shape that has been attached to a shot’s secondary

tab, this field shows the selected shape’s name and the grade to which it’s been attached
using the following format:

shapeName.gradeNumber

Attach button: Once you’ve drawn a shape you want to use to limit a secondary

operation, click Attach to attach it to the currently open secondary tab in the Secondaries
room (shown in the Current Secondary field).

Detach button: Click Detach to break the relationship between a shape and the

secondary tab to which it was previously assigned. Once detached, a shape no longer
has a limiting effect on a secondary operation.
