Tool usage

[Engine]

This has been bugging me for a while, HOW does one release a tool (such as the crop tool) after using it, short of choosing another tool. I have tried the esacape key among others but no luck. I am using the X2 version.
Thanks in advance

I do not believe there is a way to release a tool without selecting another.

At least none that I am aware of.

Just my luck, but at least I know I am not alone in the quest.

I had never thought about the issue until you posted a question about it. Never occured to me to need a way to deselect a tool.
