In PSP 9 all of the options for the various tools are shown in the
Tool Options Palette. All of your palettes can be hidden or
shown. Go to View>Palettes and click on the Tool Options to make
it visible. The View menu item will allow you to see what
toolbars and palettes you have available to use in your workspace.

You might want to consider reading through some of the help file
if you are new to the program. It is a very comprehensive program
and you will not be able to use it well without finding out what
tools are available.

Thanks. That combined with the materials palette (for color) worked great
:-)
