#MapView Help

##Tools

####Map Tools Node Creation Tool: Left-clicking on the map creates a node. Left-clicking on an existing node or edge selects/deselects it.

Edge Creation Tool: Left-clicking on an existing node starts an edge from that node. Moving the cursor to another node and left-clicking that node creates between the two nodes. Left-clicking in open space (not on an existing node) creates a new node at that location.

Box Selection Tool: Left-clicking and dragging draws a box on the screen. All nodes and edges within the box are selected.

2D Pose Estimate: Left-clicking gives the position, then dragging the arrow gives the orientation. Releasing the cursor publishes the pose estimate to /initialpose. Right-clicking cancels the operation without publishing.

2D Nav Goal: Left-clicking gives the position, then dragging the arrow gives the orientation. Releasing the cursor publishes the nav goal to /move_base/goal. Right-clicking cancels the operation without publishing.

====== ####Action Buttons Zoom to Fit: Zooms such that all known areas of the map are on the screen

Clear: If a route is currently being displayed, this erases route indicators and edge status indicators from the map. Otherwise, this erases all graph data (nodes and edges).
