The menu bar at the top of the main panel offers menus for common operations. To create new windows, load new objects, save objects or other information, or quit from geomview, see the File menu. To copy or delete objects, see the Edit menu. You can invoke any panel from the Inspect menu. The Space menu lets you choose whether geomview operates in Euclidean, Hyperbolic, or Spherical mode.
Euclidean mode is selected by default.
For details about using Hyperbolic and Spherical spaces, See section Non-Euclidean Geometry . Most actions that you can do through Geomview's panels have equivalent keyboard shortcuts so that you can do the same action by typing a sequence of keys on the keyboard. This is useful for advanced users who are familiar with Geomview's capabilities and want to work quickly without having to have lots of panels cluttering up the screen. To use this keyboard shortcut, just hit the r key while the mouse cursor is in any Geomview window. Do not hit the Enter key afterwards.
