2.5 Drawing on the Screen
You can draw on the screen in the same way that you write on the screen. The difference
between writing and drawing on the screen is how you select items and how they can be
edited. For example, selected drawings can be re-sized, while writing cannot.
To create a drawing
Cross three ruled lines on your first stroke. A drawing box appears. Subsequent strokes in,
or touching, the drawing box become part of the drawing. Drawings that do not cross three
ruled lines will be treated as writing. The word “Drawing” displays, as shown in the example
below, to notify you that the program considers this to be a drawing and not text.
To select a drawing
If you want to edit or format a drawing, you must select it first.
1. Tap-and-hold the stylus on the drawing until the selection handle appears. To select multiple
drawings, deselect the Pen icon and then drag to select the drawings you want.
2. You can cut, copy, and paste drawings by tapping and holding the selected drawing and
then tapping an editing command on the pop-up menu or the Edit menu. To re-size a
drawing, make sure the Pen icon is not selected, and drag a selection handle.
Note: To change the zoom level so it is easier to work with or view your drawing, tap Zoom
on the Tools menu, then select a zoom level.
