To add a part from the parts palette to the layout surface of the Composition Editor, follow these steps:
The information area at the bottom of the Composition Editor displays the name of the category and the name of the part that you selected. For example, Category: Data Entry Part: Text.
The pointer changes to a crosshair, indicating that it is now loaded with the part.
If you accidentally pick the wrong part, select the correct part or select
the Selection tool
from the tool bar to unload the mouse pointer.
To add several of the same part, select Sticky on the parts palette. While Sticky is selected, the mouse pointer remains loaded with the part you last selected. When you are done, unload the mouse pointer by deselecting Sticky.
