Targets
Targets define zones on the table — where the cue ball should land, where it shouldn't go, or what positional area to aim for in a positional drill. You can use multiple targets in a single layout, and you can mix types freely.
All targets are moved by Left-Click-and-Drag.
Target Types
| Type | Shortcut | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Triangle | Ctrl-t | 3-sided, arbitrary shape and size. Reshapable. |
| Circle | Ctrl-c | Standard circle. Resizable. |
| Polygon | Ctrl-p | 4-sided, with angles that can be other than 90°. Reshapable. |
| Square / Rectangle | Ctrl-[ | 4-sided with fixed 90° angles. Resizable. |
| Image | Tools menu | A JPG or PNG file placed on the layout. Moveable, rotatable, and resizable. |
Note: Image targets must be loaded through the Tools menu — there's no shortcut key for them.
Common Right-Click Functions
Every target type shares these Right-Click Menu options:
Resize — Adds a frame with circular control points. Left-Click-and-Drag a control point to resize the target.
Rotate — Adds a frame with circular control points. Left-Click-and-Drag a control point to rotate the target.
Add/Edit Label — Adds a short label (up to 20 characters) to the target. If a label already exists, you can edit it using the arrow keys, Backspace, and Delete.
Duplicate — Places an exact copy of the target in the center of the table. Useful when your layout uses several identical zones.
Remove — Deletes the target from the layout.

Reshape (Triangle and Polygon Only)
Triangles and Polygons have an additional Reshape option. Selecting it adds circular control points at each vertex. Left-Click-and-Drag any vertex to change the shape of the target freely. This lets you create irregular zones that match the actual geometry of a shot's outcome distribution.
Choosing the Right Target Shape
The shape you pick should match the zone you're defining:
- Circles work well for general landing zones where direction doesn't matter much — just "end up somewhere near here."
- Triangles and Polygons are better for wedge-shaped position zones, where the angle matters.
- Squares and Rectangles are clean and readable. Use them for straightforward positional boxes.
- Images give you maximum flexibility — use a custom PNG to create any shape or visual reference you need.
