| 00:02 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Basics of Working with Objects in LibreOffice Draw. |
| 00:08 | In this tutorial, you will learn how to: |
| 00:11 | Cut, copy, paste objects |
| 00:14 | Re-size objects dynamically using handles |
| 00:17 | Arrange Objects |
| 00:19 | Group and ungroup objects |
| 00:21 | Edit individual objects in a group |
| 00:24 | Move objects within a group. |
| 00:28 | Here, we are using:Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4. |
| 00:37 | Let us open the “WaterCycle” file which we had saved on the Desktop. |
| 00:42 | Now, let’s copy and paste three more clouds to this picture. |
| 00:47 | First, select the cloud. Then right-click to view the context menu and click Copy. |
| 00:54 | Then, place the cursor on the page, right-click for the context menu again and click Paste. |
| 01:02 | But we can see only one cloud! |
| 01:05 | Where is the cloud that we copied and pasted? |
| 01:08 | The copied cloud has been pasted on the top of the original cloud! |
| 01:13 | Let us select the cloud and move it to the left. |
| 01:17 | Let us create one more cloud in the same manner. |
| 01:21 | Select the cloud, right-click for the context menu and click Copy. |
| 01:26 | Right-click again for the context menu and click Paste. |
| 01:30 | Now, select the copied cloud and move it to the left. |
| 01:37 | We can also use short-cut keys to make copies of objects- |
| 01:41 | Ctrl+C to copy an object |
| 01:44 | Ctrl+V to paste an object |
| 01:47 | Ctrl+X to cut an object. |
| 01:50 | Select the cloud and press the Ctrl and 'C' keys together. |
| 01:55 | The cloud has been copied. |
| 01:57 | To paste, press Ctrl and 'V' keys together. |
| 02:02 | Now, select the cloud and move it to the desired location. |
| 02:08 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
| 02:11 | Add two pages to your draw file. |
| 02:14 | Draw two objects on page one. |
| 02:18 | Copy an object from page one to page two. |
| 02:22 | Check where the copied object is placed. |
| 02:25 | Cut an object and paste it. You can use the short-cut keys for this purpose. |
| 02:31 | Check if a copy of the object is made when you cut it. |
| 02:36 | Let us reduce the size of this cloud. |
| 02:38 | So, first select it. |
| 02:40 | Now the handles are visible. |
| 02:43 | Next, place the cursor on one of the corner handles till arrowhead is visible. |
| 02:50 | Now, hold the left mouse button and drag the arrow inward to make the cloud smaller. |
| 02:57 | To enlarge it, drag the arrow outward. |
| 03:00 | To make this arrow longer, first select it. |
| 03:04 | Now, move the cursor over one of the handles. |
| 03:07 | A small transparent arrow with a square beneath appears at the cursor tip. |
| 03:14 | Now, press the Shift key on the keyboard, hold the left mouse button and using the arrow’s handle, drag it down. |
| 03:25 | It is much easier to re-size the object if you press the Shift key also, isn’t it? |
| 03:32 | Resizing using the handles of an object is called Dynamic Resizing. |
| 03:38 | This means, we do not use exact measurements. |
| 03:42 | We will learn to exactly re-size objects in later tutorials. |
| 03:47 | In a similar manner, let’s increase the width of this rectangle. |
| 03:52 | Select the rectangle, press the Shift key on the keyboard and drag it upward. |
| 03:59 | Look at the Status bar, at the bottom of the Draw window. |
| 04:03 | Note that when we resize the rectangle again, the dimensions change. |
| 04:09 | The Status bar shows the change in position and dimension of the object. |
| 04:16 | Now let’s arrange the clouds and the sun as shown here. |
| 04:20 | To identify the clouds, let’s number them- 1, 2, 3, 4, starting from the left to right. |
| 04:29 | To insert the numbers- let’s select this cloud, double-click and type '1'. |
| 04:36 | Similarly, let's number the other clouds too. |
| 04:44 | Now, let’s select cloud 4 and place it over the sun. |
| 04:49 | To send it behind the sun, right-click on the cloud for the context menu. |
| 04:55 | Click Arrange and select Send Backward. |
| 04:58 | Cloud 4 is now behind the sun. |
| 05:02 | Send Backward sends an object one layer behind the present one. |
| 05:07 | Now, let’s select cloud 3 and place it above the sun. |
| 05:12 | Right-click for the context menu, click Arrange and select Send to Back. |
| 05:18 | Cloud 3 is now behind both the sun and cloud 4. |
| 05:23 | Send to Back sends an object to the last layer. |
| 05:28 | It now becomes simple to arrange the clouds as shown in the slide. |
| 05:32 | Let’s select cloud 4, right-click for context menu, click Arrange and select Bring to Front. |
| 05:40 | Bring to Front brings an object to the first layer. |
| 05:44 | Then select cloud 3, right-click for context menu, click Arrange and select Bring Forward. |
| 05:52 | Bring Forward brings an object one layer ahead. |
| 05:57 | Now, select cloud 2 and place it on cloud 1. |
| 06:01 | The clouds are arranged as shown in the slide. |
| 06:07 | Next, let’s delete the numbers from the clouds. |
| 06:10 | To do so, select the cloud and double-click. Then select the number and press the Delete key on the keyboard. |
| 06:23 | Pause the tutorial here for this assignment. |
| 06:26 | Draw a circle, a square and a star and place them as shown below. |
| 06:32 | Select each object and apply each option from the Arrange menu. |
| 06:38 | Check how the placement of figures change for each option. |
| 06:44 | Now, place the object as shown on this slides and check the Bring to Front and Sent to Back options. |
| 06:53 | Next, let’s add trees- like the ones shown in this slide, to the 'Water Cycle' diagram. |
| 06:59 | We shall draw a tree using the block arrow and an explosion. |
| 07:05 | Let us add a new page to this Draw file by clicking on Insert and then on Slide. |
| 07:11 | This will add a new page to our file. |
| 07:15 | To draw the trunk of the tree, from the Drawing toolbar, select Block Arrows. |
| 07:21 | Click on the small black triangle to see the available shapes and select Split Arrow. |
| 07:28 | Place the cursor on the page, hold the left mouse button and drag downwards and sideways. |
| 07:35 | You have drawn a tree trunk with two branches! |
| 07:39 | Let us add leaves to the branch. |
| 07:42 | Select Stars from the Drawing toolbar. |
| 07:45 | Then, click on the small black triangle and select Explosion. |
| 07:51 | Now, move to the draw page, place the cursor on the left branch of the arrow, hold the left mouse button and drag left to draw the shape. |
| 08:01 | So, we have added leaves to the tree! |
| 08:04 | We shall copy this shape to the right branch of the tree also. |
| 08:09 | Select the shape. |
| 08:11 | On the keyboard, press the Ctrl+C keys to copy. |
| 08:15 | Then, press Ctrl+V keys to paste. |
| 08:19 | Now move the shape to the right branch of the tree. |
| 08:22 | We have drawn a tree! |
| 08:25 | Let us select the tree and move it down. |
| 08:28 | Only the tree trunk moves down; the leaves don’t! |
| 08:32 | Here, the tree trunk and the two leaves are treated as separate objects. |
| 08:38 | Let’s move the tree trunk back to where it was. |
| 08:41 | Let us learn how to group the tree trunk and two leaves into a single unit. |
| 08:47 | Any change made to a group is applied to all the objects within the group. |
| 08:53 | First, click on the page so that none of the objects are selected. |
| 08:58 | Then, from the Drawing toolbar, click Select. |
| 09:02 | Move the cursor to the page and click on the page. |
| 09:05 | Now, press the left mouse button and drag so that all the objects are selected. |
| 09:11 | You will see a dotted rectangle. |
| 09:14 | Ensure all the objects of the tree are selected within this rectangle. |
| 09:20 | Alternately, you can select two or more objects by pressing the Shift key and then clicking on each object. |
| 09:28 | Right-click for context menu and select Group. |
| 09:32 | Now, click on any object in the tree. |
| 09:36 | The handles appear as if they are part of a single object. |
| 09:40 | These objects are now treated as a single unit. |
| 09:45 | To ungroup them as separate objects, select the tree, right-click and select Ungroup. |
| 09:52 | The objects are now ungrouped and are treated as three separate objects. |
| 09:56 | Let’s group them again. |
| 09:58 | Press the Shift key and select the object one after another. |
| 10:03 | Right-click and select Group. |
| 10:06 | Let's copy the tree to page one which is our main drawing page. |
| 10:10 | So, Ctrl and C to copy, click on page one and Ctrl and 'V' to paste. |
| 10:17 | Now, suppose we want to edit a single object within a group. What do we do? |
| 10:23 | Let me demonstrate a simple way to do this without having to ungroup and regroup the objects. |
| 10:30 | Select the group and right-click for the context menu. |
| 10:33 | Select Enter Group. |
| 10:35 | Notice that all the objects outside the group are disabled. |
| 10:39 | Only the objects within the group can be edited. |
| 10:43 | For example, let us select the leaves on the right-side of the tree and reduce the size. |
| 10:51 | Let us press Ctrl + 'Z' to undo this and proceed further. |
| 10:56 | Now, we should reduce the size of the tree so that it fits in the 'Water Cycle' drawing. |
| 11:02 | So, we have to exit the Edit mode of the group. |
| 11:05 | To exit the group, place the cursor on the page, right-click and select Exit group. |
| 11:13 | We are now out of the Edit mode for the group. |
| 11:16 | Select the tree and move the cursor over the bottom-right handle. |
| 11:21 | The cursor turns into a re-sizing arrow. |
| 11:24 | Drag the arrow inwards. |
| 11:26 | And we have reduced the size of the whole tree! |
| 11:29 | Let's add three more trees to this picture. |
| 11:32 | Select the tree and Ctrl and 'C' to copy, Ctrl and 'V' three times to paste. |
| 11:39 | This will create three copies of the trees. |
| 11:41 | Now, we will move them to the desired location. |
| 11:45 | Repeat these steps for all the trees. |
| 11:51 | Now remember, each tree is made up of three objects. |
| 11:55 | Each tree is also a group by itself. |
| 11:58 | We have created groups of objects. |
| 12:01 | Let us now add the water body to the drawing. |
| 12:04 | To give the effect of water, we shall add a triangle next to the rectangle and then add a curve. |
| 12:12 | To draw a triangle, select Basic shapes from the Drawing toolbar. |
| 12:18 | Click on the small black triangle and select Right Triangle. |
| 12:24 | Let us draw it and place it next to the rectangle. |
| 12:28 | Now, let us draw a curve filled with color to show the movement of water. |
| 12:34 | From the Drawing toolbar, select Curve. Now, click on Freeform Line, Filled. |
| 12:42 | Then place the cursor on top of the triangle, hold the left mouse button and drag it down. |
| 12:49 | Let’s adjust the curve so that it looks like flowing water. |
| 12:56 | The triangle and the curve together create water; let’s group them as a single object. |
| 13:03 | From the Drawing toolbar, click Select. |
| 13:07 | Now, move the cursor to the page, press the left mouse button and drag to cover the triangle and the curve. |
| 13:16 | Right-click and select Group. |
| 13:18 | We have now created the basic outline of the 'Water Cycle'. |
| 13:23 | Here is another assignment for you. |
| 13:26 | Create this picture on your own. |
