Working with Graphics and Animation 37
Note that the time it takes a visitor to load one of your Web pages is
directly related to the size of the page’s HTML file plus any
accompanying graphic files. Graphics require larger file sizes, and
hence slow down loading time. And even in compressed form, bitmap
files like the photo we’ve just imported tend to be much larger than
simple line or shape graphics (see below)—so use them sparingly!
Keep picture dimensions to the minimum needed to convey your point.
It’s always wise to plan your layouts so as to avoid large graphic areas.
Drawing basic lines and shapes
WebPlus provides three easy-to-use drawing tools. You’ll find them on
the left toolbar:
Straight Line Freehand Line QuickShape
With them, you can add both functional and decorative layout
elements—for example, clickable buttons or page dividers. To draw a
line, click either line tool, then click and drag. To extend an existing
line, begin drawing from one of the line’s end nodes.
QuickShapes are pre-designed objects that you can instantly add to
your page, then adjust and vary using control handles. The QuickShape
flyout contains a wide variety of commonly used shapes, including
boxes, ovals, arrows, polygons and stars.
Y Click the 4XLFN6KDSHbutton, then select a box shape from the
flyout. Click and drag out a small box on the screen.
The new box displays a sliding adjustment handle, used to control
corner shape. Most QuickShapes have multiple adjustment sliders.
Y Drag the slider up for concave corners, down for convex. Note that
the tool has reverted to the Pointer, and you can also use it to move
or resize the box.
Initially, the box will have a black line border and a clear fill. The
easiest way to change the object’s line and fill properties is to use the
Studio.
Y Display the /LQH panel of the Studio’s Attributes tab. Try applying
a higher Weight value to give the box a thicker border, and click
various Type samples for a different line.
