Now we'll move on to mapping arguments on the workspace, using indicator words to help with this process.

 

Up until now you've been dragging boxes onto the workspace, but you can also drag text the same way. To drag text, highlight the portion you want, hold the mouse button down, and drag the text onto the workspace.

Example

Global warming map

Here's how we arrived at this map.
