LaTeX Tools Palette

The LaTeX Tools Palette provides graphical shortcuts to insert common commands in the LaTeX source

To use the palette

Check the Use LaTeX Tools item of the Source menu

When it is on use, this palette is on screen whenever a TeX document si front most. It is hidden when a project window or a view window is ordered front.

Closing the palette is a considered as a temporary operation. It will appear next time a TeX source document is ordered front. If you want to definitely dismiss the palette, just uncheck the Use LaTeX Tools item of the Source menu.

The use of blackboard bold symbols needs the amsfonts package. (\usepackage{amsfonts} in the LaTeX preamble)

Comments:
This palette will be removed in further release and replaced by menus. So do not complain about its awful design (it is useless on my 15' screen)

The original code was part of the TeXShop 1.14 release due in part to Lenglin. It took me more than three hours to extract the pertinent part from TeXShop and make it compliant with both object and cocoa programming. Then, It took me 10 minutes to incorporate the new code in iTeXMac.

I simplified the original palette removing the part actually covered by Macros.
