If you press the Shift key while moving the line, the line will

rotate in 45-degree increments.

Mirror copies

This useful command does not exist in Draw or Impress. It can,

however, be easily emulated.

Move the axis of symmetry to the desired location of the mirror axis.

Copy the object to the clipboard. Flip the object, then click on an

empty area of the page in order to deselect the object. Paste from the

clipboard to put a copy of the object in its original location and now

you have a mirror copy.

Figure 75: Making a mirror copy of an object

Distorting an image

Three tools on the Mode toolbar let you drag the corners and edges of

an object to distort the image.

The Distort tool distorts an object in perspective, the Set to Circle

(slant) and Set in Circle (perspective) tools both create a pseudo

three-dimensional effect. In all three cases you are initially asked if you

want to transform the object to a curve. This is a necessary first step,

so click Yes. Then you can move the object handles to produce the

desired effect.

The results of using these tools are shown in the following figures.

Distort an object

Select an object and click on the Distort icon . After converting to a

curve as requested, move the handles to stretch the object.

The corner handles distort, as shown in Figure 76. The vertical

midpoint handles distort the figure horizontally and the horizontal ones

distort it vertically.
