Time | Narration |
00:02 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on How to Create Simple Drawings in LibreOffice Draw. |
00:08 | In this tutorial, you will learn how to create simple drawings using: |
00:13 | * Basic shapes such as lines, arrows and rectangles. |
00:17 | * Basic geometric shapes, symbols, stars and banners. |
00:22 | You will also learn how to: * Select, move and delete an object. |
00:27 | * Use the ruler to set margins and the align toolbar to position objects. |
00:33 | Here, we are using:
|
00:42 | Let us define the word Object. |
00:44 | The term “Object” denotes shapes or group of shapes used in Draw such as lines, squares, arrows, flowcharts and so on. |
00:55 | All the shapes shown in this slide are referred to as objects. |
00:59 | Let us open the file “WaterCycle” that was saved on the Desktop. |
01:04 | We will first learn how to select an object. |
01:08 | Let’s say, we want to select the cloud. So, we will simply click on it. |
01:13 | On doing so, eight handles become visible. |
01:16 | Handles-
Handles are the small blue or green squares that appear on the sides of the selected object. |
01:22 | You will learn more about handles and their use in the later tutorials. |
01:27 | Let’s add some more objects to our drawing. |
01:30 | Let us add a rectangle to represent the ground. |
01:34 | In the 'Drawing' toolbar, click on Basic shapes and then click on Rectangle. |
01:39 | Now, move the cursor to the page. You will see plus sign with a capital 'I'. |
01:45 | Hold the left mouse button and drag to draw a rectangle. |
01:50 | Now release the mouse button. |
01:52 | Next, let us draw some arrows to show the movement of water vapour from the ground to the cloud. |
02:00 | To draw a line, click on Line in the Drawing toolbar. |
02:04 | Move the cursor to the page. |
02:06 | You will see a plus sign with a slanting dash. |
02:10 | Hold the left button of the mouse and drag from top to bottom. |
02:15 | You have drawn a straight line! |
02:17 | A line has two handles. |
02:20 | Now, let us add an arrowhead to the line. |
02:23 | We shall select the line now. |
02:25 | Right-click to view the context menu and click on Line. |
02:30 | You will see the “Line” dialog-box. Now, click on the Arrow styles tab and then click on the Arrow style drop-down. |
02:39 | This displays the available “Arrow styles”. |
02:43 | Select the first option named Arrow. |
02:46 | Click on OK. |
02:48 | This will add the selected style of arrowheads to both ends of the line. |
02:52 | But we need an arrowhead on only one end of the line. |
02:57 | So, first we will undo this change by pressing Ctrl+Z. |
03:02 | Right-click again to view the context menu. |
03:05 | Now, click on the Line tab. |
03:09 | Here, under Arrow Styles, you will see the field named “Style”. |
03:14 | You see two drop-down boxes - one for each end of the line. |
03:19 | Click on the left drop-down box and select Arrow. |
03:23 | In the right drop-down box, select none. |
03:26 | Click on OK. |
03:28 | Note that an arrowhead has been added to the top end of the line. |
03:33 | We can also draw arrows using the “Lines and Arrows” option. |
03:38 | Let us draw two more arrows next to this arrow. |
03:42 | From the Drawing toolbar >> click on Lines and Arrows and select Line Starts with Arrow. |
03:48 | Move the cursor to the Draw page. |
03:51 | Hold the left button of the mouse and drag from up to down. |
03:56 | It is easier to draw an arrow this way, is it not? |
04:00 | Let us add one more arrow in the same manner. |
04:06 | Pause this tutorial and do this assignment. |
04:09 | In your file “MyWaterCycle”, draw a line. |
04:13 | Select the line and open the Line dialog-box. |
04:16 | Under the Line Properties field, change style, color, width and transparency for lines. |
04:24 | Under the Arrow Styles field, change the arrow styles. |
04:28 | Next, let us draw a star. |
04:31 | Go to the 'Drawing' toolbar and click on the small black triangle next to Stars. |
04:37 | Let us select 5-Point Star. |
04:41 | Now, place the cursor next to the cloud. |
04:44 | Hold the left button of the mouse and drag to the left. |
04:48 | You have drawn a star! |
04:50 | Now let us learn how to move and delete objects. |
04:54 | To move an object, just select it and drag it to the desired location. |
04:59 | Now release the mouse button. |
05:02 | You can also use the up, down and side arrow keys on the keyboard to move an object. |
05:08 | Moving objects is simple, isn't it? |
05:11 | To delete an object, just select it and then press the Delete key on the keyboard. |
05:17 | The object is deleted. Isn't it simple? |
05:20 | Now let us learn about the basic aids - the Ruler and the Align toolbar. |
05:26 | The Ruler is used to set up page margins and modify the units of measurement. |
05:31 | The Align toolbar is used to position objects. |
05:35 | The Ruler is displayed on the top and on the left side of the Draw workspace. |
05:40 | To set the measurement units, right-click the Ruler on the top. |
05:45 | You will see a list of measurement units. |
05:48 | Click on Centimeter. |
05:50 | The measurement unit for the top ruler is now set to centimeter. |
05:55 | Similarly, let us set the measurement for the ruler on the left. |
06:00 | To make sure that the objects are drawn to scale, always set the same units of measurements for both rulers. |
06:08 | You will notice that the active ruler is in the color- white. |
06:12 | The ends of the ruler represent the page margins values that we set in Page Setup. |
06:19 | Let us see how the Ruler displays measurements for objects. |
06:23 | Select the cloud. |
06:25 | Can you see two small start and end marks on the ruler? |
06:29 | These define the edges of the cloud. |
06:32 | If you move these marks on the ruler, you will notice that the figure changes accordingly. |
06:38 | The ruler shows the size of an object on the page. |
06:42 | It also enables us to position an object on the page and displays page boundaries. |
06:49 | Let us move on to the next basic aid - Align toolbar. |
06:53 | We use the “Align” toolbar to align the selected object to the left, right, top, bottom and centre. |
07:01 | To enable the Align toolbar, go to the Main Menu and click View. |
07:07 | Under the “View” menu, click Toolbars. |
07:11 | You will see the list of toolbars. |
07:13 | Click Align. |
07:15 | You will see the Align toolbar. |
07:18 | Let us now see, how an object is aligned when we use different Align options. |
07:24 | Let us select the cloud. |
07:26 | On the Align toolbar, click Left. |
07:29 | The cloud is aligned to the left. |
07:32 | Let us now understand the difference between the two options Centered and Centre. |
07:38 | We shall align the circle to Centre and then to Centered. |
07:43 | First, let us align the circle to the Right. |
07:47 | Let’s select the circle and on the Align toolbar, click Right. |
07:52 | Now, on the Align toolbar, click Centre. |
07:56 | The circle is aligned to the centre position. |
07:59 | The option Centre centres the object exactly between the top and bottom margins of the page. |
08:06 | It does not move the object with respect to the page-width. |
08:10 | Now, from the Align toolbar, let us select Centered. |
08:15 | The circle is aligned to the centre of the page. |
08:18 | The option Centered aligns the circle to the centre of the page. |
08:23 | It moves the object with respect to the top and bottom margins and the page-width. |
08:33 | Now, we shall move the objects back to their correct positions as per our sample drawing. |
08:40 | Remember to save the file before you close it. |

08:59 | Use the ruler to measure the size of some the objects. |
