| 00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Inserting Text in Drawings in LibreOffice Draw. |
| 00:07 | In this tutorial, we will learn how to: |
| 00:10 | * Work with text in drawings |
| 00:12 | * Format text in drawings and |
| 00:15 | * Work with text boxes. |
| 00:17 | We will also learn to: |
| 00:19 | * Set indents, space and align text |
| 00:22 | * Add text to Lines and Arrows |
| 00:26 | * Place text within Callouts. |
| 00:29 | Text can be added in two ways: |
| 00:31 | * It can be directly inserted into a drawn object, |
| 00:35 | including on lines and arrows. |
| 00:37 | * It can be inserted into a text box as an independent Draw object. |
| 00:42 | Here, we are using: |
| 00:44 | * Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 and
|
| 00:52 | Let us open the Draw file “Water Cycle” and add some text to it. |
| 00:57 | We shall add the text “Cloud Formation” to the two white clouds, next to the sun. |
| 01:04 | Select the white cloud group. |
| 01:06 | Double-click on it in order to enter the group. |
| 01:10 | Let us select the top cloud. |
| 01:13 | Now, let’s select the Text tool from the Drawing toolbar. |
| 01:17 | Can you see the cursor has transformed into a small, vertical, blinking line? |
| 01:23 | This is the text cursor. |
| 01:25 | Let us type the text: “Cloud Formation”. |
| 01:29 | Now, click anywhere on the page. |
| 01:33 | Let us enter the same text for the other white cloud too. |
| 01:37 | To exit the group, double-click anywhere on the page. |
| 01:42 | Let us now name the sun in the same way. |
| 01:45 | Entering text in objects cannot get simpler than this! |
| 01:50 | Next, let us select the gray cloud group. |
| 01:53 | As before, double-click on it to enter the group. |
| 01:57 | Type “Rain Cloud” in each cloud. |
| 02:02 | As the text in the gray clouds is black in color, it is not visible. |
| 02:07 | So, let us change the color of the text to white. |
| 02:11 | Select the text and right-click for the context menu and select Character. |
| 02:17 | The “Character” dialog-box is displayed. |
| 02:20 | Click on the Font Effects tab. |
| 02:23 | In the Font color field, scroll down and select White. |
| 02:28 | Click OK. |
| 02:30 | The font color changes to white. |
| 02:33 | In the same manner, let’s change the text color of the second cloud. |
| 02:38 | Select the text and right-click, then select Character. |
| 02:43 | In Font color, choose “White”. |
| 02:46 | Double-click anywhere on the page to exit the group. |
| 02:50 | Similarly, let’s type the word “Mountain” in the triangle that depicts the mountain. |
| 02:58 | You can format text for |
| 02:59 | Character, that is, change font styles and give special effects to fonts. |
| 03:05 | You can also format text for Paragraph, that is, align text, set indents or spacing and set tab positions. |
| 03:13 | You can access these dialog-boxes either |
| 03:16 | from the Context menu or |
| 03:18 | from the Main menu. |
| 03:21 | To access the Character dialog-box from the Main menu, select Format and select Character. |
| 03:28 | To access the Paragraph dialog-box from the Main menu, select Format and select Paragraph. |
| 03:36 | In the rectangle, let’s draw a thick black line to show where the ground water accumulates. |
| 03:43 | From the Drawing tool bar, select Line. |
| 03:46 | Move the cursor to the page, press the left mouse-button and drag from left to right. |
| 03:54 | Draw a horizontal line that will divide the rectangle into two equal halves. |
| 04:01 | The ground is divided into two! |
| 04:04 | Now, let’s make the line wider. |
| 04:07 | Select the line and right-click for the context menu. |
| 04:11 | Click on Line. The “Line” dialog-box appears. |
| 04:16 | In the Style field, click the drop-down box. |
| 04:20 | Select Ultrafine 2 dots 3 dashes. |
| 04:24 | In the Width field, enter the value point .70. |
| 04:29 | click OK. |
| 04:31 | We have widened the line! |
| 04:34 | Lets insert the text “Ground water table”, inside the rectangle. |
| 04:39 | First, let’s select the Text tool. |
| 04:42 | This is the capital “T” option on the Drawing toolbar. |
| 04:46 | Move to the Draw page. |
| 04:49 | Now, the cursor has been transformed into a Plus sign with a small capital 'I' beneath it. |
| 04:55 | Click inside the rectangle. |
| 04:57 | Observe that a text-box appears. |
| 05:01 | Here, let's type: “Ground water table”. |
| 05:05 | To align the text to the centre of the text-box, place the cursor inside the text box. |
| 05:12 | Click on Centered icon, in the Standard toolbar, at the top. |
| 05:19 | In a similar manner, let’s add the text: |
| 05:22 | “Rain water flows from land into rivers and sea”, in the triangle. |
| 05:30 | Pause this tutorial for the assignment. |
| 05:33 | Draw a square. |
| 05:35 | Insert the text: “This is a square. |
| 05:38 | A square has four equal sides and four equal angles. Each angle in a square is ninety degrees. |
| 05:46 | The square is a quadrilateral.” |
| 05:50 | Format this text using the options in the Text dialog-box. |
| 05:54 | Apply the font size, style and alignment options to the text. |
| 06:00 | Now let’s arrange the arrows in the diagram. |
| 06:03 | These arrows show evaporation of water from land, vegetation and water bodies to the clouds. |
| 06:12 | Let’s select the left-most arrow. |
| 06:14 | Now, click and drag towards the mountain. |
| 06:18 | Let’s select the middle arrow. |
| 06:21 | Now, click and drag towards the trees. |
| 06:25 | The third arrow shows evaporation of water from water to the clouds. |
| 06:31 | Let’s use the option Curve to draw a line that shows water running down the mountains. |
| 06:37 | From the Drawing toolbar, click on Curve and select Freeform Line. |
| 06:43 | On the draw page, place the cursor next to the mountain. |
| 06:47 | Press the left mouse button and drag down. |
| 06:51 | You have drawn a curved line! |
| 06:53 | Now, let’s add descriptions to each of these arrows. |
| 06:58 | Select the first arrow to the right and simply type: “Evaporation from rivers and seas”. |
| 07:06 | Click anywhere on the page. |
| 07:08 | The text appears on the line. |
| 07:12 | Notice that the text is placed exactly on the line and hence it is not clear. |
| 07:18 | To move the text above the line, click on the line. |
| 07:22 | Text is placed horizontally. |
| 07:25 | Place the cursor at the end of the text and press the Enter key. |
| 07:30 | Click on the page. |
| 07:32 | The text gets aligned. |
| 07:35 | Text typed on lines and arrows can also be formatted using options from the context menu. |
| 07:41 | Let’s format the font size using the context menu. |
| 07:45 | Click on the text: |
| 07:47 | “Evaporation from rivers and seas”. |
| 07:50 | The text is now horizontal. |
| 07:53 | Let’s select the text and right-click to view the context menu. |
| 07:58 | Select Size and click 22. |
| 08:02 | The size of the font has changed. |
| 08:05 | Now, let’s type the following text for all the other arrows. |
| 08:09 | "Evaporation from soil" |
| 08:12 | "Evaporation from vegetation" |
| 08:17 | "Run off water from the mountains". |
| 08:22 | Let’s show rain falling from the grey clouds. |
| 08:26 | To show rain- let’s draw dotted arrows which point downwards from the cloud. |
| 08:32 | From the Drawing toolbar, select Line Ends with Arrow. |
| 08:37 | Then place the cursor on the first grey cloud to the left. |
| 08:42 | Press the left mouse button and drag it down. |
| 08:46 | Right-click for the context menu and click Line. |
| 08:50 | The “Line” dialog-box appears. |
| 08:53 | Click on the Style drop-down list and select |
| 08:56 | 2 dots 1 dash. |
| 08:58 | Click OK. |
| 09:00 | We have drawn a dotted arrow. |
| 09:02 | Let’s copy and paste two more arrows for this cloud. |
| 09:06 | Now, let’s copy and paste two arrows to the other cloud. |
| 09:12 | Now, let’s add the text “Rain” to the dotted arrows. |
| 09:21 | Let’s type the text “Evaporation to form the clouds”, in a text box, just above the Water object. |
| 09:28 | From the Drawing toolbar, select the Text tool and draw a text-box as shown. |
| 09:35 | Type: “Evaporation to form the clouds” inside it. |
| 09:41 | From the Drawing toolbar, select the Text Tool |
| 09:44 | and draw a text-box next to the grey clouds. |
| 09:48 | Type: “Condensation to form rain” inside it. |
| 09:53 | Move the text-box by first clicking on the border of the text-box. |
| 09:57 | Now, drag and drop it in the desired location. |
| 10:02 | Following the previous steps, let’s give the title “WaterCycle Diagram” |
| 10:07 | using a text-box and format the text in Bold. |
| 10:16 | We have completed drawing the 'Water Cycle' diagram! |
| 10:20 | Now, let’s learn about Callouts. |
| 10:22 | What are Callouts? |
| 10:24 | They are special text-boxes that call your attention to or |
| 10:29 | point to an object or a location in the Draw page. |
| 10:33 | Most comic books, for example, have |
| 10:36 | text placed inside Callouts. |
| 10:39 | Let’s add a new page to the Draw file. |
| 10:42 | From Main menu, select Insert and click on Slide. |
| 10:47 | A new page is inserted. |
| 10:50 | To draw a Callout, go to the Drawing toolbar. |
| 10:54 | Click the small black triangle, next to the Callout icon. |
| 10:59 | Various Callouts are displayed. |
| 11:01 | Let’s click on Rectangular Callout. |
| 11:04 | Move the cursor to the page, press the left mouse button and drag. |
| 11:10 | You have drawn a Callout. |
| 11:12 | You can enter text inside the Callout ,just as you did for the other objects. |
| 11:18 | Double-click and type the text: “This is an example”, inside the Callout. |
| 11:25 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial on 'LibreOffice Draw'. |
