# The following symbols are predefined
#    class VIEW View            {use to access the view the tool script is attached to}
#    class GROUP Group          {use to access the group being viewed if the script is run from a group view}
#    class LAYOUT Layout        {use to access the layout being viewed if the script is run from a layout view}

# The following values are also predefined and are valid when the various On...() 
# functions are called which deal with pointer and keyboard events. 
#    number PointerX            Pointer X coordinate within view in pixels
