Drawing Zones Manually
You can draw and modify zones using tools in the Tool palette. If the
Tool palette does not appear when the Image View is active, choose
Show Tool Palette
in the Window menu.
You can use the tab key to cycle through zone tools when the Image
View is active.
To draw a rectangular zone:
1
Click the Draw/Select Zones tool in the Tool palette if it is not
already selected.
The mouse pointer in the Image View becomes a drawing tool.
2
Click the appropriate zone type in the Zone Info palette.
For example, click the Graphic type if you are going to draw the
zone around a graphic such as a photo. See “Specifying Zone
Types” on page 31 for more information.
3
Enclose an area of the image you want as a zone by holding
down the mouse button and dragging the drawing tool to form
a rectangular box.

Release the mouse button when you are done.
After drawing a zone, you can resize it by dragging its handles.
