Creating Your Own Graphics

If you want to create your own graphics, you can choose the Insert|Graphics|Draw Picture menu. That will bring up the following window.

This window will let you create original drawings, changing the shape, color, and size of them. There are also several pre-made shapes you can use. The pre-made shapes are located under the Insert|Shapes menu. Here are a few examples.

It should be noted that the triangle was made by choosing the Insert|Shape|Regular Polygon option. You can then choose the number of sides that you want for the polygon. Once you choose the image you want, simply click-and-drag that image on the desktop.
