Changing the size of an object

1. Use the 

 pointer to select the object you wish to modify.

2. Use the mouse to grab one of the object's handles, then drag the mouse.

To grab a handle, move the 

 pointer over it, then hold down the left mouse button.

3. When the object is the size you want, release the left mouse button.

Dragging a middle handle only changes either the vertical or the horizontal dimension.

Holding down your keyboard's shift key while dragging a corner handle maintains the
vertical-to-horizontal ratio as you change the size of the object.
