Using the Select Tool in the Workspace
The Select Tool is the default tool that is used when opening or creating a PlanetPress Design document, and is most likely to be the one you will use most of the time. The Select Tool lets you select and move objects around in the Workspace.
To select any object in the Workspace:
- Place your mouse over the object and click on it.
To select multiple objects in the Workspace, use either methods:
- Create a box around all the objects you want to select by using drag & drop from an empty area on the page.
- Click on the first object you want to select and, while holding down the CTRL button, click on any number of other objects to add to your selection.
Selected objects have a red border around them, as well as resize handles in the corner and edges.
To move an object or objects in the Workspace:
- First, select one or more objects to move.
- Drag the object or objects to the new location.
To resize an object or objects in the Workspace:
- First, select one or more objects to resize.
- Using any of the resize handles (squares at the corners or edges of your selection), click and move the handle to resize.
If multiple objects are selected, they will all be resized together.
