Selecting objects

Before you can work with an object, you must select it. You can select an individual object, multiple objects or all objects on a page. When you select an object, a selection rectangle appears around it.

The white circle in the object’s lower-right corner is a resize handle (see Resizing objects).

The gray circle above the object is a rotation handle (see Rotating objects).

To select an object

1. Press Pan or Select on the SMART Business Toolbar.

2. Press the object you want to select.

   A selection rectangle appears around the object.

   Note 

   If you press an object and a lock symbol appears instead of the menu arrow, the object is locked. You must unlock the object before you can manipulate it (see Locking objects).

To select multiple objects

1. Press Select on the SMART Business Toolbar.
