Transforming objects freely
You can use transform handles to freely transform objects, including text blocks, and to combine
a series of transformations. You can also use transform handles to transform an object within a
group or a paste inside, or to transform a point within a selected path.
If transform handles don’t appear when you double-click an object, you can display them using
FreeHand preferences.
Note: Extruded objects are rotated differently than other objects. For more information, see “Extruding objects” on
page 205.
