Using the shape selection tool



The shape selection tool allows you to select shapes with one click. After you select a shape, you can move, resize, and rotate the shape.

Note: After a shape is converted to a bitmap image by simplifying the layer, the shape selection tool will no longer select the shape.

To use the shape selection tool:

Do one of the following:

  • Select the shape selection tool () in the toolbox. The shape selection tool may be hidden beneath another drawing tool. To select a hidden tool, position the pointer on the visible tool and hold down the mouse button until the tools list appears. Then select the desired tool.
  • If another shape tool is active, click the shape selection tool in the options bar.
