Rearranging Stacked Objects When you’re copying and pasting multiple objects onto the same page, they often become stacked on top of one another. You may want to rearrange them to reveal an object hidden within the stack. Select the Bring Forward and Send Backward commands in the Draw > Order menu (Windows operating systems only) to rearrange selected overlapped objects − one position at a time − for selective visibility. The Bring to Front and Send to Back commands in the Draw > Order menu (Windows operating systems) or the Draw menu (Mac 8.5 − 9.x operating systems) take selected objects all the way to the front or rear of the stack. NOTE: This feature isn't available for Mac OS X operating system. Resizing Objects You can resize any object by dragging its resize handles until it’s the right shape and size. To resize a selected object: 1 Select the object to be resized according to the instructions on page 50. 2 Move the cursor over any of the eight resize handles. The cursor will change to a two-headed arrow. 3 Press and drag the two-headed arrow cursor to enlarge or contract the object. To maintain the original height-to-width ratio of a geometric object, press the Shift key and drag one of the four diagonal resize handles located in each corner of the selection rectangle, as shown in the figure below. Diagonal Resize Handles NOTE: You can change the size of a text box, but the contents will remain unaltered. Contracting or enlarging a text box will only change the dimensions of the box and the way in which the text wraps within that box. To change text size, press the Font Size button or select Font from the Format menu, then select a different point size from the Font dialog box. Changing Object Attributes You can change the color, font style and size of any text object: You can also change the color and line width of any graphical object you create. After selecting the object, you can use the Notebook software toolbar buttons, right-mouse commands (Windows operating systems) or the Pen Tray tools to effect an attribute change. To change the visual attributes of an object: 1 Select the object(s) you want to change. 2 To change the color or line width of the object: Diagonal Resize Handles • Press the Color button in the toolbar.
