Select a form object

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

To do certain things with an object (change the font, move it, resize it, etc.), you first have to select it. Select means to point to the object with the mouse and then to click the left mouse button.

For example, to change font size, you select the object for which you want to change the font size. Then you specify the font size from the Format toolbar.

To select a single object

1.Click on the object.
 
Sizing handles appear around the object to indicate that it is selected.
 

Selecting multiple objects

1.Hold down the Shift key and click on the objects you want to select.
 
Handles appear on each selected object. You can then move or delete the objects as a group. You can also change the font or text formatting for all selected objects in one operation.
 

You cannot resize objects when multiple objects are selected.
