The tool palette wasn't on the screen. You had a printed palette you
taped down to the work table & you oriented it by clicking the mouse on
the top left & bottom right of the printed card. Drives were those big

Putting something on tape took a whole mess of commands. Rotations were
in whole degree increments & took forever but Macs just crashed if you
tried to do anything like that back then.
