Transforming objects 219
To modify a shape with the Envelope modifier:
1.
Select a shape on the Stage.
2. Select Modify > Transform > Envelope.
3. Drag the points and tangent handles to modify the envelope.
Scaling objects
Scaling an object enlarges or reduces the object horizontally, vertically, or both. You can scale
an object by dragging it or by entering values in the Transform panel.
To scale objects by dragging:
1.
Select a graphic object or objects on the Stage.
2.
Select Modify > Transform > Scale.
3. Do one of the following:
■
To scale the object both horizontally and vertically, drag one of the corner handles.
Proportions are maintained as you scale. Shift-drag to scale nonuniformly.
■
To scale the object either horizontally or vertically, drag a center handle.
4. To end the transformation, click outside the selected object or objects.
Rotating objects
Rotating an object turns it around its transformation point. The transformation point is
aligned with the registration point, which defaults to the center of the object, but you can
move the point by dragging it.

gradients, object groups, or text. If a multiple selection contains any of these, only the

objects.

When you increase the size of a number of items, those near the edges of the
bounding box might be moved off the Stage. If this occurs, select View > Work Area
to see the elements that are beyond the edges of the Stage.
