The following sections provide more detail about Shape toolbar buttons, and how to create objects using
them.
4.2.4.1 The Fill Mode Button
The manner in which some Shape toolbar buttons work is affected by the state of the the
Fill Mode button, which is found at the bottom of the Shape toolbar. Buttons representing closed
objects such as circles, rectangles, polygons and closed splines can be created as filled or unfilled objects.
When this button appears pressed in, fill mode is set to ON, and any closed objects created will be filled in.
The fill color used depends on what Fill color is currently selected in the Settings/Properties windows. This
button appears raised when fill mode is OFF, and any closed objects created in this mode will not be filled.
4.2.4.2 Creating Straight Lines
To create straight lines, select the Line button . Straight Lines have only two points. If a third point is
picked (clicked on), it is the beginning point of the next Line.
EXAMPLE:
1. Click the Line button.
2. Position the pointer where the line is to begin, point (a).
3. Press and hold the left mouse button while dragging the pointer.
4. Release the left mouse button at point (b), the end of the line. (The line appears on the
screen.)
5. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 to create more lines if necessary, or terminate the procedure.
✎ Note The tools provided on the Shape toolbar can also be accessed via
menus. Select the menu sequence Menu > Shapes to access these
tools via the menu.
