Resizing, Flipping, Rotating and Moving Drawing Objects

When you select one or more drawing objects, a bounding box appears around the selected objects. If you take a close look at the bounding box, you’ll notice that there are small boxes in each corner, in the center of each side, and on the right side of the bounding box. These boxes are called handles.

Depending on the handle you select, you can make different types of changes to the selected object. When you pass your pointer over a handle or over the object, the pointer changes to indicate the type of change you can make.

Move : changes the current position of the selection. To nudge selected objects, you can also use the arrow keys. Press [Shift] if you want to move the object in larger increments.
Resize Sides : changes the width of the selected lines/shapes.
Resize Top/Bottom : changes the height of the selected lines/shapes.
Resize Height/Width : changes the height and width of the selected lines/shapes. Press [Shift], and the shape will resize proportionally.
Rotate : changes the angle of the selected lines/shapes.

If you drag a handle beyond it’s opposing handle on the bounding box, you will flip the drawing object either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

You can also use the following commands in the Tools > Transform menu to flip and rotate your drawing objects:

Flip Horizontal: swaps the left and right side of the image.
Flip Vertical: swaps the top and bottom of the image.
Rotate 90° CW: turns the drawing 90 degrees to the right (clockwise).
Rotate 90° CCW: turns the drawing 90 degrees to the left (counter-clockwise).
Rotate 180°: rotates the image 180 degrees.
