00:06 In this tutorial, you will learn how to:
00:09 * Fill objects with color, gradients, hatching and bitmaps
00:15 * Set page backgrounds

00:24 You can fill objects with:
00:25 * Colors
00:26 * Gradients
00:29 * Line patterns or hatching and
00:32 * Pictures.
00:33 Here, we are using:
  • Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 and
  • LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.
00:42 Let us color the 'WaterCycle' diagram.
00:46 Let’s begin by coloring the two clouds next to the sun. We shall fill them with white.
00:54 Select the cloud next to the sun.
00:56 Right-click to view the context menu and click Area.
01:01 The “Area” dialog-box is displayed.
01:05 Click the Area tab and under the Fill option, select Color.
01:13 Scroll down and click on white.
01:16 Click OK. <Pause>
01:19 In the same way, we will colour the other cloud too.
01:24 Right-click under Area, Color and White.
01:30 Coloring each cloud will take a long time.
01:33 An easier way to do this is to group them.
01:38 Let’s color the other two clouds, in “gray” as they are rain-bearing clouds.
01:46 First let’s group them.
01:48 Press the Shift key and click the first cloud and then click on the second.
01:54 Right-click for the context menu and click Group.
01:58 The clouds are grouped.
02:00 Again, right-click for the context menu and click Area.
02:07 In the “Area” dialog-box, click the Area tab. Under the Fill option, select Color and scroll down and click on the colour “Gray 70%”.
02:23 Click OK. <Pause>
02:25 Let’s color the triangle “brown 3” in the same way.
02:37 Now, let’s color the rectangle in “brown 4” in the same way, again.
02:48 Similarly, let's colour the sun yellow.
02:58 Next, let’s color the other triangle and curve that represent water with the colour “turquoise 1”.
03:05 As they require the same formatting, let’s group them if they are not already grouped.
03:12 To color them, let’s follow the same steps as in the previous ones - right-click, Area, Area tab, Fill, color, turquoise 1.
03:27 Observe that in the object “water”, the outlines of the triangle and the curve are displayed.
03:35 Let’s make these outlines invisible so that the picture looks better.
03:41 Select the object, right-click to view the context menu and click Line.
03:48 The “Line” dialog-box is displayed.
03:52 Click the Line tab .
03:55 In Line properties, click on the Style drop-down box and select Invisible.
04:03 Click OK.
04:05 The outline of water object becomes invisible.
04:09 Now, let us color the trees.
04:14 Let us select the left-most tree.
04:16 Right-click to view the context menu and click on Enter Group.
04:23 Now, let’s edit the tree.
04:26 Select the leaves on the right.
04:30 Right-click for the context menu and click Area.
04:36 In the “Area” dialog-box,
04:38 click the Area tab.
04:40 Under Fill, select Color.
04:44 Scroll down and click on “Green 5”.
04:47 Click OK.
04:49 Let us do the same for the leaves on the left.
04:57 Let’s color the trunk of the tree next.
05:05 Select the Y-shaped arrow, right-click for the context menu and click Area.
05:08 Notice that all the selection are retained in the "Area" dialog box.
05:15 So let's select “Color”.
05:18 Scroll down and click on “Brown 1”.
05:21 Click OK.
05:23 We have colored the tree!
05:26 To exit the group, right-click and select “Exit Group”.
05:31 We can color the other trees in the same way.
05:36 We can also delete the other trees, copy paste the colored tree and move it to the desired location.
05:44 It is much easier this way, isn’t it?
05:49 Now let us add a "shadow" to the cloud next to the "Sun".
05:55 Let’s click Select from the Drawing toolbar to select and then group them.
06:03 Select the white cloud group and right-click for the context menu and click “Area”.
06:10 In the “Area” dialog box, click the “Shadow” tab.
06:15 In Properties, check the Use Shadow box.
06:20 The other fields now become active.
06:24 In “Position”, click the bottom-right corner option.
06:29 “Position” defines where the shadow will appear.
06:33 In the Color field, select Gray.
06;36 Click OK.
06:39 A shadow is displayed behind each white cloud.
06:44 Now let’s make the clouds look more realistic.
06:48 Select the gray cloud group and right-click to view the context menu and select “Area”.
06:55 In the “Area” dialog box, select “Area” tab. Under “Fill”, click “Gradient”.
07:02 Now select Gradient1.
07:04 Click OK.
07:06 The cloud now has a more realistic shade of gray!
07:11 . Select a shape - say a cloud group. Right-click for the context menu and click " Area".
07:19 The Area tab options are visible.
07:23 Under Fill, you will see the 4 options -
07:27 Colors, Gradient, Hatching and Bitmap.
07:32 Notice that there is a corresponding tab in the dialog box for each of these options.
07:39 These tabs allow us to create and save new styles.
07:43 Let’s click on the Colors tab.
07:46 Under Properties, let’s select Red 3 from the Color drop-down.
07:53 Then, select RGB and enter the values for R, G and B as shown.
08:01 R,G and B stands for the proportion of red, green and blue in any color.
08:08 We will enter 200 for R, 100 for G and 50 for B.
08:16 Here we are changing the proportion of red, green and blue to change the color.
08:22 Look at the preview box above the RGB field.
08:28 The first preview box displays the original color.
08:31 The second preview box next to the Color field shows the changes that we made.
08:37 Let’s type a name for this in the Name field.
08:41 Let’s enter the name “New red”.
08:44 Click on the Add button.
08:46 The new color is added to the list.
08:49 Click OK.
08:51 We have created a new color!
08:54 Let’s undo this action by pressing Ctrl and Z.
08:59 The colour of the cloud reverts to white, again.
09:03 You can create your own gradients and hatching too, using the tabs in the Area dialog-box.
09:10 Gradients are shades that blend from one color to the other.
09:14 For example, the color shade moves from blue to green.
09:18 Hatching is a shading or texture in drawing that is created using fine parallel lines.
09:24 Now, let’s learn how to import a bitmap into Draw.
09:28 From the Main menu, select Format and click Area.
09:33 As seen earlier the Area dialog-box opens, click on the Bitmaps tab.
09:39 Now click on the Import button.
09:42 The Import dialog-box appears.
09:45 Browse and select a bitmap.
09:48 Click on the Open button.
09:50 Draw prompts you to enter a name for the Bitmap.
09:55 Let’s enter the name “NewBitmap”.
09:58 Click OK.
10:00 The Bitmap now appears in the drop-down list.
10:04 Click OK to exit.
10:07 Observe the clouds now.
10:10 Let’s undo this by pressing Ctrl and Z keys.
10:14 Let us use bitmaps to fill the object “water”.
10:19 Now let us make the water look more realistic.
10:22 To do this, select the grouped triangle and curve.
10:26 Right-click for the context menu and select Area.
10:31 In the “Area” dialog-box, click the Bitmaps tab.
10:36 Scroll down the list of bitmaps and select Water.
10:41 Click OK.
10:43 The water looks more realistic now!
10:46 Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
10:50 Draw objects and fill them with color, gradients, hatching and bitmaps.
10:57 Use the Transparency tab and see its effects on the objects.
11:02 Let’s color the sky now. This is simple!
11:06 We just apply a background to the whole page.
11:10 Click the cursor on the page to ensure no objects are selected.
11:15 Right-click for the context menu.
11:21 The Page setup dialog-box is displayed.
11:25 Click the Background tab and under Fill, select Color.
11:30 Let’s scroll down and select the color “Blue 8”.
11:34 Click OK.
11:36 Draw asks you if this background setting should be for all pages.
11:41 Click NO.
11:44 Now only the selected page has a background color.
11:48 You can also choose not to fill the object with colors.
11:52 Let us select the mountain.
11:55 Right-click for the context menu and select Area.
11:59 In the “Area” dialog-box, select the Area tab.
12:04 Under Fill, select None.
12:06 Click OK.
12:08 The object is not filled with any color and only the outline is seen against the background.
12:15 To undo the action, press Ctrl+Z keys.
12:20 You can also access all these options from the Format menu.
12:25 Remember to save your file by pressing Ctrl+S keys together, every time you make a change.
12:34 Alternately, set the Automatic Save option so that the changes are saved automatically.
12:41 Here is another assignment for you.
12:43 Color this picture you created.
12:45 Give a background to the page.
12:47 Create some new colors.
12:50 This brings us to the end of this tutorial on LibreOffice Draw.
