Time Narration
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.
