Chapter 1: Understanding InDesign Ingredients
InDesign adds two tools: the Page tool (see Chapter 4) and the Gap tool (see
Chapter 10). It drops the Position tool. Also, you can get more detail on any
tool and how to use it by going to the new Tool Hints panel (choose Window➪
Utilities➪Tool Hints); it shows options for whatever tool you then select.
