# Deforming a Drawing Object

You can use the Perspective tool to skew and distort (also known as “deforming”) the selected drawing object in the Drawing View window.

For example, if you had an image you wanted to appear as viewed from an angle, you could draw the image as it looks from the front and then use the Perspective tool to distort it so that it would appear like you were looking at it from an angle.

To deform a drawing object:

1. From the Tools > Drawing Tools > Select menu or from the Drawing Tools toolbar, select the Perspective tool.

2. Select the drawn objects you want to deform. Press [Shift] to select multiple objects.

3. Drag the selection handles to deform the selected object.
