-Use tool button.
+Use tool button.  (Long press on tool to open the mini-inventory to switch to a different tool.)
 Examples:  On a bookshelf, interact will take a book, use tool button will read the spine of the book.  With a door, interact will attempt to open the door, use tool button will use the key in hand to unlock or lock the door.
