Creating and Editing a Graphic 49
To draw a basic shape from a specific centerpoint, hold
down Alt (Windows) or Option (Macintosh) and
drag a drawing tool. The Polygon tool always draws
from a centerpoint.
To both constrain a shape and draw from the
centerpoint, hold down Shift-Alt (Windows) or Shift-
Option (Macintosh) while using a drawing tool.
The corner rounding percentage setting on the
Rectangle Tool Options panel determines the
curvature of the corners of rectangles drawn using the
Rectangle tool. To assign a rounding percentage value
to the corners of a rectangle, enter a value or use the
slider on the Rectangle Tool Options panel before
drawing the rectangle.
Use the Polygon tool to draw stars and other polygons.
Use the Polygon Tool Options panel to set the number
of sides, choose stars or shapes, and set angle acuteness.
