What is the Select tool?

The Select tool is the first tool on the Kami toolbar. It contains three different options.

1. General Select Tool

This tool allows you to select annotations individually to edit or move them.

When an annotation is selected, an action bar will appear with options that can be used on the annotation (such as move, rotate, read aloud, etc.). This action bar will remain visible until another annotation or area of the document is clicked.

πŸ“ Remember, each annotation tool action bar has different options available, depending on what is needed for that particular tool.

2. Hand tool

The Hand tool is particularly useful for touchscreen devices or when a scroll option is unavailable. It lets you click the document to drag it up or down and adjust your view, making your document easily viewable across different device setups.

3. Select Annotations Tool

This tool is designed for multi-select annotations. It can select any drawings, shapes, text boxes, and equation tool annotations simultaneously. This allows you to easily move, copy & paste, or delete annotations on your document.
