Keeping a used tool or function

Sometimes, e.g. if one is panning a drawing, it is more convient to keep the panning tool and not jump automatically back to the selection tool. Is there a possibility to change this behaivor of OpenOffice?

Thanks,
Lars

Try doubleclicking the button or ctrl click the button or something like that. It works for some tools I think.

Thank you! Doubleclicking works with some tools (especially with draw stuff), but not with zooming and panning. I think that would be good as well. Perhaps in the next version.

There's a pan tool? Wow. O I see now. THere you go.

Anyway to pan you can use the sroll wheel, or click the scroll wheel and move the mouse around.

Or ctrl-scroll to zoom in and out. What sucks is I got moved to a new location at work and now I don't have a scrolly mouse anymore! Aaaegh
