Add/Modify Hot Link Tool

 

Overview

Hot Link Tools are added or modified from the Add Tool or Modify Tool page. Both pages contain the same fields for adding or modifying a Tool. The settings configured here apply only to the Tool as it appears in the Hot Link section of the top frame. For example, if the Calendar is added and given the name College Calendar it will still be called Calendar on the Tools Panel.
