Tools
Tools is a standard configuration interface for adding, editing, and removing the custom tools that are available to perform actions and processes on a particular diagram.
Refer to the Standard Configuration Interface guide for details on interacting with the grid and form.
This user interface calls REST methods from api/diagram/tools.
The UI path for this interface is Configuration -> Diagrams -> Tools.
