Working with Graphics and Animation
Y Now display the Attributes tab’s &RORU panel. You can easily
change the box’s line or fill color and/or shade by first right-
clicking a solid color sample, then choosing either $SSO\WR/LQH
or $SSO\WR)LOO. (Left-clicking a sample applies the solid color or
shade to the selected object’s fill.). For each base color you select,
you can pick from multiple shades of that color displayed in the
Shades group.
Note: You can achieve great results using just solid colors, but for even
more impressive effects in conjunction with the .PNG graphic format,
explore the Transparency panel on the Attributes tab. Using the
samples in conjunction with the Transparency tool, you can create
highlights, shading and shadows, and simulate “rendered” realism.
You’ll find full details in online help, as noted at the end of the chapter.
Y Now click to display the )LOOpanel. Here you’ll find an array of
predefined color fills in several categories: Linear, Radial, and
Conical. Try applying some of the thumbnails to get a feel for the
wide range of possibilities. If you want to switch back to a clear
fill, click 1RQH in the drop-down list.
Y In passing, right-click on the box object itself and note the
available /LQH, )LOO, and 7UDQVSDUHQF\ options that let you
adjust all these properties.
The 4XLFN6KDSH button lets you draw a
whole range of figures, including ovals,
polygons, arrows, stars, callouts, and so on.
As a mini-project, you might try creating a
Home Page button by overlaying a text frame
on an unfilled shape. Select both objects, then
click the little *URXS button to link them.
Later (in the next chapter) we’ll see how to
add a hyperlink!
Other tools and techniques
You already know how to select, move, and resize objects. Here are
several additional tricks you can carry out on selected objects. Try them
out on your sample photo and box graphics!
Y Use the
5RWDWH tool to rotate an object around its top left
handle. Select the object, then drag one of its handles.
