Adding a Sticky-Note

Rather than add text directly to a document,as you do with the Text
tool,you can add a Sticky-Note to any portion of the document.
When you add a Sticky-Note,you can choose the text attributes: font,
font size and color,background color, and special effects (underline,
strikeout).
You can type any text that you want for the Sticky-Note,editing the note
later if necessary. Ifyou select a font, font size,a color, or special effect,
it affects the entire note.If you change any of the attributes while editing
a note,or while the note is selected, it changes all the text in the note.

cursor to draw an appropriately sized square or rectangle.
