Using Pager Design & Selection Tools
Once a template is selected, Pager Design & Selection Tools can be used to add, move, and resize template nodes and elements.

Before making any changes to a template, you must first select the appropriate tool from the Design & Selection Tools palette.

	The IMAGE button is used to move or crop an image within a node. For more information on how to insert images into template nodes, please view our ROES Video Tutorials.
	The EDIT button is used for making changes to an existing node. Use to select a node, then resize the node or apply attributes (see "Applying Node Attributes With Pager" section).
	The DRAW button is used to draw new image nodes on the selected template.
	The TEXT DRAW button is used to draw new text nodes on the selected template.
	The MONTAGE button gives you several options for automatically generating grid layouts or collages.

To Move and/or Resize a Node:

1. Click on the EDIT button.
2. Place your mouse cursor over the node that you want to move or resize. Depending on the area of the node you are over, the cursor will change to one of the following:
   

   	MOVE NODE Hold mouse over center area of node.
   	RESIZE EDGE Hold mouse over edge of node.
   	RESIZE CORNER Hold mouse over corner of node.
   	ROTATE NODE Hold mouse near inside corner of node.

3. When you see the desired cursor, click and hold the mouse to drag the node to its desire size or location.
   
   TIP: Select the "Show hot areas when editing nodes" option in the PREFERENCES menu for a visual of the interactive cursor areas on the selected node.

To Create a New Node:

1. Click on the DRAW button to create an image node, or click on the TEXT DRAW button to create a text node.
2. Go to the Layout Area and point the cursor in the location where you would like to start drawing your node.
3. Click and hold the mouse button while dragging the cursor along the template.
4. When you've finished creating the image node, release the mouse button.

To Move One Node Behind or In Front of Another:

1. Click on the EDIT button, then click once on the node that you want to move.
2. Use the LAYER buttons to move the node forward and back.
   

To Delete a Node from the Template:

1. Click on the EDIT button.
2. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac) on the node you want to remove.
3. Select REMOVE NODE.
   

TIP: Other common actions can also be performed by Right-clicking (Windows) or Control-clicking (Mac) on the image node of your choice, such as duplicating nodes, setting the layer order, and setting the node type (see below).

To Set the Node Type:

Setting the node type can be helpful when you want to change a node from an image node to a text node, or when you want a node to be for stroke or fill purposes only.

1. Click on the EDIT button.
2. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac) on the node for which you would like to change the node type.
3. Scroll to NODE TYPE, then select one of the three available options:

IMAGE NODE
Accepts images only (no text).

TEXT NODE
Accepts text only (no images).

EMPTY NODE
For layout purposes only. Useful for creating layout elements such as strokes and filled boxes.

To Duplicate a Node:

There are certain Pager Attributes that can only be applied to new, user-created nodes. Sometimes it is useful to duplicate a node in order to be able to apply these attributes (see Pager FAQs for details). Also, this is a good way to create multiple nodes that are exactly the same size.

1. Click on the EDIT button.
2. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac) on the node that you wish to duplicate.
3. Select DUPLICATE.
4. The new node will appear exactly on top of the existing one. Use the MOVE tools to pick up the node and put it in the desired location.

Working with Layout Grids:

A layout grid can help you align and position nodes more accurately. To add a layout grid, click on the GRID button in the Attribute Tools area, then set the spacing for your grid. Check the "Snap to Grid" box to move your nodes in specified increments only.
