Syntax
public class TextTool : RectangleToolBase, IDisposableRemarks
This tool manages the insertion of new text nodes into a diagram and editing of existing text nodes. Activating this tool causes it to track mouse down, mouse move, and mouse up events and draw a tracking rectangle. The rectangle drawn is used as the bounds of a new text node, which is inserted into the diagram using an InsertNodesCmd.
This tool also listens for double-click events. If the user double clicks on a text node, this tool opens a text editor allowing the user to edit the text.
