==Object Halos==
Right-clicking on any object in Squeak or Etoys brings up a halo of tool icons, as in this image. Different kinds of object may have a different selection of tools in the halo.

Starting at the top left and proceeding counterclockwise, the icons for a Workspace window are
* X, Remove from screen
* O, Collapse
* Eye, Open a viewer for me.
* Rectangle, Make a tile representing this object
* Whirly square, Rotate
* Title
* Box and partial frame, Change size
* Eye dropper, Change color
* Wrench, Debug
* Two rectangles, Duplicate
* Square with corners, Move
* Square with tongs, Pick up
* Menu, as shown below
Most of these are reasonably discoverable. The [[The Undiscoverable/Squeak/Object Viewer|object viewer]] requires further explanation.
