The basic drawing shapes

Draw provides a wide range of shapes, located in palettes accessed

from the Drawing Toolbar. This chapter describes only a few of the

basic shapes; see the Draw Guide for a complete description of the

shapes available. These shapes include rectangles and squares; circles,

ellipses, and arcs; 3D objects; curves; lines and arrows; text; and

connectors.

When you draw a basic shape or select one for editing, the Info field at

the left side in the status bar changes to reflect the present action:

Line created, Text frame xxyy selected, and so on.

Figure 168 shows part of the Drawing toolbar with the icons needed in

the following sections. The Text icon is also included.

Drawing a straight line

Let’s start by drawing the simplest of shapes: a straight line. Click on

the Line icon on the Drawing Toolbar and place the mouse pointer

where you want to start the line. Drag the mouse while keeping the

button pressed. Release the mouse button when you want to end the

line.

A blue or green selection handle appears at each end of the line,

showing that this is the currently selected object. The colors depend on

the selection mode (green for simple selection and blue when in point

edit mode). This effect is easily apparent if on the Options toolbar both

Simple Handles and Large Handles are switched on.
