Editing objects
To edit an object or change attributes such as color or border width, the Line and Filling toolbar, the
Text Formatting toolbar, the Sidebar Properties section, or a context menu can be used. More
information on editing objects and changing attributes can be found in the Draw Guide Chapter 4
Changing Object Attributes.
Line and Filling toolbar
By default, the Line and Filling toolbar in Draw is not shown. To display it, go to View > Toolbars
> Line and Filling on the Menu bar to open the toolbar (Figure 190) at the top of the workspace.
The most common object attributes can be edited using this toolbar. You can also open the Line
dialog by clicking on the Line icon and the Area dialog by clicking on the Area icon for
access to more formatting options.
