Object Graphics!

A graphic inserted as an object “floats” above the document text and cannot cover existing document text. Instead, docu-
ment text automatically “wraps” around the graphic.!

You can drag an object outside the page margin, or across pages, to
create interesting text wrap effects.!

Click an object-based graphic to select it. Selecting a PICT object dese-
lects document text. 

As a result, selecting a PICT object disables all text editing commands.!

Scaling Graphics!

To scale a graphic, select it so the selection handles are visible and either:!

Double-click the graphic to display the graphic scale dialog.!
-or-!
Interactively scale the object by dragging one of the eight selection handles.!

Showing/Hiding Graphics!

To hide graphics placed into the document as an object, choose Show Graphic from the Show|Hide menu. This may im-
prove screen redraw speed if the graphic is large.!
