EditManipulator.HandleTool Class
Interactive control handle modification is done by installing an InputCollector. Modification typically is started from a click or press and drag while over the handle graphics. The HandleTool base class is set up to define an offset by 2 points. The second point is defined by either another click, or up event when initiated from press and drag.

| minArgs Accessor Static Inherited ReadOnly | number | InputCollector | The minimum number of arguments allowed by parseAndRun. If subclasses override parseAndRun, they should also override this method to indicate the minimum number of arguments their implementation expects.
