Modifying objects

Once you create an object, you can change its size, move it, or delete it. A number of other features let
you align and rotate objects quickly and easily.

Selecting and deselecting a single object

1. Click

on the draw toolbar.

When you move the pointer back to the layout area, its shape (

) does not

change.

2. Move the

pointer on top of the object you wish to select, then click the left

mouse button.

Small solid squares, called handles, appear around text or graphic objects to
indicate that they are selected.

3. To deselect the object, move the

pointer anywhere in the layout area

outside of the selected object and click the left mouse button again.

At this time, the handles disappear from around the object.

Selecting and deselecting multiple objects

1. Click

on the draw toolbar.

2. Move the

pointer so it is on top of the first object you wish to select, then click the left

mouse button.

3. Move the

pointer to the next object you wish to select, then hold down the keyboard's

shift key while clicking the left mouse button.

Now, two objects are selected.

4. Repeat step 3 to select all of the objects you want selected.
