|00:01&lt;br /&gt;
| Welcome to the spoken tutorial on '''Create and Manage Tools'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:06&lt;br /&gt;
|In this tutorial we will learn to,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Customize the tool bar &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Create a new tool&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Manage the created tool and&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Open a new '''GeoGebra''' window and check the created tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:21&lt;br /&gt;
|To record this tutorial, I am using;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Ubuntu Linux OS''' version 16.04&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''GeoGebra''' version 5.0.438.0-d&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:34&lt;br /&gt;
| To follow this tutorial, learner should be familiar with '''GeoGebra''' interface.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the prerequisite '''GeoGebra '''tutorials, please visit this site.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:46&lt;br /&gt;
| I have already opened the '''GeoGebra''' interface on my machine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:51&lt;br /&gt;
|For this tutorial I will un-check the axes&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:56&lt;br /&gt;
| We will begin by customizing the tool bar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|00:59&lt;br /&gt;
|Click on '''Tools '''menu and select '''Customize Toolbar '''option. The '''Customize Toolbar''' window opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:08&lt;br /&gt;
| The window has a drop-down to choose the '''views'''. By default, '''General view''' is selected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:16&lt;br /&gt;
| The '''Toolbar''' box has a menu button next to each tool, to show the related tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:22&lt;br /&gt;
| Below the '''Toolbar '''box, we have the '''Up '''and '''Down''' arrow buttons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:27&lt;br /&gt;
| I will select '''Line''' tool&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:30&lt;br /&gt;
| These buttons are used to move the selected tool up or down the list.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:37&lt;br /&gt;
| At the bottom left, we have '''Restore Default Toolbar''' button, to restore the default toolbar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:43&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on '''Restore Default Toolbar''' button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:46&lt;br /&gt;
| Next we have '''Tools'' box. This is used to separate the tools from the '''Toolbar''' box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:53&lt;br /&gt;
| In the '''Toolbar''' box, click on the menu button next to '''Move''' to show the related tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|01:59&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on '''Move''' tool and then click on the '''Remove''' button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:04&lt;br /&gt;
| Notice that the '''Move''' tool has moved to the '''Tools''' box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:08&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on the menu button to close the '''Move''' menu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:11&lt;br /&gt;
| Next click on the menu button next to '''Perpendicular Line''' to show the related tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:17&lt;br /&gt;
| Now click on '''Tangents''' tool and then click on the '''Remove '''button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:23&lt;br /&gt;
| Notice that '''Tangents '''tool has also moved to the '''Tools''' box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:28&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on menu button to close the '''Perpendicular Line''' menu.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:34&lt;br /&gt;
| Let's separate these tools from their related tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:38&lt;br /&gt;
| Select '''Move''' tool in the '''Tools '''box and click on '''Insert''' button. The '''Move''' tool is inserted as a separate tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:48&lt;br /&gt;
| Next, select '''Tangents''' tool and click on the '''Insert''' button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:54&lt;br /&gt;
| '''Tangents''' tool is also inserted as a separate tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|02:58&lt;br /&gt;
| Now click on '''Apply''' button to apply the changes.  Then click on the '''Close''' button to close the window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:06&lt;br /&gt;
| Notice that '''Move''' tool and '''Tangents '''tool are shown separately on the toolbar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:13&lt;br /&gt;
| Now we will learn to create a new tool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:16&lt;br /&gt;
| We will begin by drawing tangents to a circle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:20&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on the '''Circle with Centre and Radius '''tool. Click in the '''Graphics view.'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:27&lt;br /&gt;
| '''Circle with Center and Radius''' text box opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:31&lt;br /&gt;
| In the '''Radius''' field, type 3 and click on '''OK ''' button at the bottom. A circle with centre '''A''' and radius 3 cm is drawn.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:42&lt;br /&gt;
| Drag the boundary of the '''Algebra view''' to see the equation of the circle.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:47&lt;br /&gt;
| Drag the boundary to see the '''Graphics view''' clearly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:51&lt;br /&gt;
| Now using '''Point''' tool we will mark an external point '''B '''on the '''Graphics view'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|03:58&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on '''Tangents''' tool. Then click on point '''B''' and then click on circle '''c'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:07&lt;br /&gt;
| Two tangents are drawn to the circle '''c''' from point '''B'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:12&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on the '''Tools''' menu and select '''Create New Tool '''option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:18&lt;br /&gt;
| The '''Create New Tool''' dialog box opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:22&lt;br /&gt;
| In the box we have '''Output Objects''', '''Input Objects''' and '''Name &amp;amp; Icon''' tabs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:29&lt;br /&gt;
| By default '''Output Objects''' tab opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:33&lt;br /&gt;
| In the '''Output Objects''' tab, there is a drop-down to select '''objects'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:38&lt;br /&gt;
| From the drop-down, select &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Circle c with center A and radius 3 '''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Line f: Tangent to c through B'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Line g: Tangent to c through B'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|04:52&lt;br /&gt;
| Next click on the '''Input Objects''' tab. In this tab, '''Point A''' and '''Point B '''are already selected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:00&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on '''Name &amp;amp; Icon''' tab. In this tab we can type the '''Tool name '''and '''Tool help'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:07&lt;br /&gt;
| For the '''Tool name '''I will type '''Tangents to a circle'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:11&lt;br /&gt;
| Observe that, as I type the '''Tool name''', the '''Command name''' automatically gets filled.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:17&lt;br /&gt;
| In the '''Tool help''' box, I will type '''Click two points'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:22&lt;br /&gt;
| Observe that '''Show in Toolbar '''check-box is already checked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:27&lt;br /&gt;
| Lastly click on '''Finish '''button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:30&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:37&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on '''OK''' button to close this message box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:41&lt;br /&gt;
| Observe that, a new tool '''Tangents to a circle''' is seen on the toolbar, with a tool tip.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:47&lt;br /&gt;
| Let's delete all the objects from the interface.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:51&lt;br /&gt;
| Now let us use the tool that we have just created.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|05:55&lt;br /&gt;
|Click on the '''Tangents to circle''' tool and click two points in the '''Graphics view'''. Tangents to a circle are drawn.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:05&lt;br /&gt;
| We will now see how to manage the tool we have created.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:09&lt;br /&gt;
| Click on '''Tools''' menu and select '''Manage Tools ''' option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:14&lt;br /&gt;
|The '''Manage Tools''' dialog box opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:17&lt;br /&gt;
| This dialog box has '''Delete''', '''Open, Save As''' and '''Share '''buttons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:24&lt;br /&gt;
| We will save the '''Tangents to a circle''' tool. Click on '''Saves As''' button.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:31&lt;br /&gt;
| '''Save as'''dialog box opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:34&lt;br /&gt;
| In the '''File name''' text box I will type '''Tangents hyphen circle(Tangents-circle)'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:39&lt;br /&gt;
| Note that, in the ''' Files of type''', '''GeoGebra Tools(.ggt)''' is already selected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:46&lt;br /&gt;
|Select a location to save the file.  I will select '''Desktop'''. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|06:52&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:08&lt;br /&gt;
| The '''Close File''' box opens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:11&lt;br /&gt;
| It asks '''Do you want to save your changes?'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:15&lt;br /&gt;
| In the box, I'll select '''Don't Save '''button as I have already saved the file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:22&lt;br /&gt;
| Now we will open the saved file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:25&lt;br /&gt;
| I had saved it on my '''Desktop''' as '''Tagents-circle.ggt'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:31&lt;br /&gt;
| We can open the file by double clicking on it. Or right-click and select '''Open With GeoGebra''' option.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:40&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:46&lt;br /&gt;
| We don't see the tool we created, if we open a new '''GeoGebra''' window using '''Dash Home'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|07:55&lt;br /&gt;
| You can check it yourself.  The new tool is not available in the new '''GeoGebra''' window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| 08:02&lt;br /&gt;
| Let us summarize what we have learnt.&lt;br /&gt;
