Drawing geometric shapes
The icons for drawing geometric shapes are located on the Drawing toolbar and each geometric
shape is explained in the following sections. Clicking on the triangle to the right of the icon opens a
floating toolbar giving access to the tools for that geometric shape.
The use of these tools for geometric shapes is similar to the tool used for drawing rectangles and
squares. For more information, see “Rectangles or squares” on page 35.

used and may not be the same as the icons shown in the following sections.
