A selection box appears around a selected object, and an “X” appears at its center.
You can select a single object in a group.
You can select all objects using the Pick tool. However, some tools allow you to select only objects that are appropriate to the active tool. For
example, if a curve tool is active, you can select any curve object, but you cannot select other object types.
When you select an object, either a selection box, rotation and skew handles, or the object’s nodes appear. Clicking a selected object
changes its selection mode. The selection modes are
• Drag and scale— a selection box appears around the object.
• Rotate and skew — rotation and skew handles appear around the object.
• Shape/Edit — the object’s nodes appear.
You can drag, rotate, or shape the object by its snap points, depending on which selection mode is active. See “Using gravity snapping ” on
page 97 for a list of snap points.
