Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Working with Objects in LibreOffice Draw.
00:06	In this tutorial, we will learn how to:
00:08	* Position objects using Grids and Guide lines
00:12	* Use snap functions
00:14	* Customize lines and arrowheads.
00:18	You will also learn how to: * Duplicate objects
00:21	* Re-size objects exactly
00:24	* Distribute objects
00:25	* Combine, merge, subtract and intersect objects.
00:30	We are using: Ubuntu Linux version 10.04 as our operating system and LibreOffice Suite version 3.3.4.
00:40	What are Grids?
00:42	Grids aid to position objects
00:45	accurately on the Draw page.
00:48	Let us open the file 'RouteMap' that was saved on the Desktop.
00:53	In the previous tutorials, we had briefly used grids.
00:57	Now, let us learn about grids in detail.
01:01	From the Main menu, select View and click on Grid.
01:05	Then click on Display Grid.
01:08	The Draw page is filled with a number of horizontal and vertical dotted lines. These form the grid.
01:17	These grids are for display purposes only. They will not be printed.
01:22	We can customize the size of the grids, that is, make them smaller or bigger as required.
01:30	From the Main menu, select Tools and click Options.
01:35	You will see the Options dialog-box.
01:38	Click LibreOffice Draw and select Grid.
01:42	Under Resolution, enter the following values:
01:46	Horizontal – 7 cm
01:49	Vertical – 5 cm.
01:53	Subdivision decides the number of spaces in a grid.
01:57	Let us enter Subdivision values.
02:00	Horizontal – 3
02:02	Vertical – 4.
02:05	Let us leave the Synchronize axes option unchecked.
02:09	Click OK.
02:11	Look at the Draw page now. Look at the size of each box in the grid.
02:17	Let us count the spaces that we set in Subdivision.
02:22	Horizontally there are 1, 2, 3 spaces and vertically there are 1, 2, 3, 4 spaces.
02:33	Now, let us learn about Guides.
02:36	What are Guides?
02:38	Guides are helper lines or extensions of the edges of the objects
02:43	that are displayed when it is moved.
02:47	Let us enable the guidelines.
02:50	Go to the Main menu, select View and select the option Guides.
02:55	Now, click the option Display Guides.
02:59	From the Main menu, click Tools and Options.
03:03	The Options dialog-box appears.
03:06	From the left panel, click on the small black triangle next to LibreOffice Draw. Click View.
03:15	From the right panel, select Guides when moving. This way you can see the guides when moving objects.
03:23	Click OK.
03:27	Now, let us move the park a little to the right.
03:29	When the park is moved, the extension lines of the edges of the object become visible. These are the Guidelines.
03:39	What are Snap Lines?
03:41	Snap Lines help us position two or more objects within an area that is defined.
03:48	Snap lines and Snap points are created by the user.
03:53	Snap lines run vertically and horizontally and appear as dashed lines.
03:59	You must enable the Snap Lines option before you create snap lines.
04:05	Go to the Draw page. Right-click for the context menu and select Snap Lines.
04:12	Now, check all the three options:
04:16	Snap Lines Visible,
04:18	Snap to Snap Lines,
04:20	Snap Lines to Front.
04:22	Snap lines that we create, will now be visible.
04:26	Let’s define an area, using Snap Lines, within which the objects in the map must fall (as shown in the slide).
04:34	Move the mouse cursor over the vertical ruler.
04:38	Press the left-mouse-button.
04:41	You will notice that the cursor is now shaped like a two-sided arrow.
04:46	Drag the mouse towards the Draw page.
04:50	You will see a dotted line.
04:53	Do not release the mouse-button.
04:55	Holding the left-mouse-button, drag the dotted line to the page.
05:01	Now, release the mouse-button.
05:04	Can you see the line?
05:06	This is the Snap Line.
05:07	To create the bottom most limit, simply drag the line to the bottom of the page.
05:13	Let’s create three more Snap Lines to define the area within which the map is enclosed.
05:24	We have created horizontal and vertical Snap Lines.
05:29	Now you can position the objects along these Snap Lines.
05:34	You can, of course, create as many Snap Lines as you want.
05:40	The horizontal and vertical Snap Lines function like the X and Y-axis on a graph.
05:48	Within these two axes, you can position objects exactly.
05:54	You can use Snap function along with the grid lines to position objects accurately.
05:59	You can also: * Snap to Grid- position an object exactly on grid points
06:06	* Snap to Snap lines - position an object exactly on a snap line
06:11	* Snap to Page margin - position an object exactly on the page margin.
06:18	Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
06:21	Explore all the Grid options.
06:24	Check what happens to objects when you snap to Grid, snap lines and page margins.
06:31	Now, let’s add one more lake, in the exact shape of this lake, next to the School Campus.
06:38	To do this, let’s use the Duplicate option.
06:43	Let’s select the Lake.
06:45	Go to the Main menu', select Edit and click on Duplicate.
06:51	The Duplicate dialog-box appears.
06:54	In Number of copies, enter the value 1 and click OK.
06:59	The Lake is duplicated.
07:03	Let’s drag the lake and place it near the school.
07:06	Objects can also be re-sized exactly to any measurement that is required.
07:11	Let’s use exact measurements and change the shape of the House as shown in this slide.
07:18	Let’s give it the same height and width and slant its corners and rotate it.
07:24	First, select Home, right-click for the context menu and select Position and Size.
07:31	The Position and Size dialog-box appears.
07:35	Click the Position and Size tab.
07:38	Under Size, enter the value 3 in both the Width and Height fields.
07:43	Then click the Rotation tab.
07:46	In the Angle field, enter the value 10.
07:50	Finally, select the Slant Corner and Radius tab.
07:55	In the Slant Angle field, enter 5 degrees.
07:59	Click OK.
08:01	We have re-designed the house!
08:05	Pause this tutorial and do this assignment.
08:08	# Draw various shapes using the Drawing tool bar.
08:11	# Check if you can apply Corner radius to all shapes.
08:16	Now, let’s space the right edges of some objects evenly.
08:21	We will use the Distribution option to achieve this.
08:26	We must Select at least three objects to use the Distribution option.
08:32	First, select the Residential Complex, the Parking Lot and the Commercial Complex.
08:39	Let’s group them by dragging the Select arrow to cover all the objects.
08:45	Now, right-click and select Distribution.
08:50	Under Horizontal, select Right. Click OK.
08:56	The right edges of the object get distributed evenly.
09:01	The Distribution option does not distribute the objects horizontally or vertically.
09:07	The Horizontal Distribution option distributes-
09:10	* The right and left edges
09:12	* The horizontal centers and
09:14	* The spacing of the objects.
09:17	The Vertical Distribution option distributes-
09:21	* The top and bottom edges The vertical centers and The spacing of the objects.
09:26	Now, let’s create our own line style for this map.
09:32	From the Main menu, select Format and click Line.
09:35	The Line dialog-box appears.
09:38	Click on Line Styles tab.
09:41	In Line Styles, select the option Three dashes and three dots.
09:47	Leave the Type field as it is.
09:50	In Number, let’s enter 10 and 5; Length as 8%.
09:57	Click Add. Enter the name "My Line Style". Click OK.
10:06	Again click OK.
10:08	Let’s select this arrow. Right-click and select Line. The Line dialog-box appears.
10:13	Click the Line tab.
10:16	Click on the Style drop-down box.
10:19	It now displays the new style that was created.
10:22	Select it and click OK.
10:26	We have created a new line style!
10:29	Let’s draw a small stadium to the left of the School Campus.
10:34	From the Drawing toolbar, click Basic Shapes and select a Circle.
10:40	Let’s enter it in the Draw page.
10:44	The outline of the circle is of the style My Line Style.
10:49	Let’s type “Stadium” inside it.
10:53	Now, let’s learn to combine, merge, subtract and intersect objects.
10:59	What is the difference between Grouping and combining objects?
11:03	When objects are grouped, a number of objects are just put together.
11:09	When objects are combined, new object is created.
11:13	We will use three objects to demonstrate these options.
11:18	First, let us add a new page to the Draw file.
11:23	Let’s draw a circle from the Drawing toolbar, click Basic Shapes and select a Circle.
11:32	Move the mouse in the Draw page and drag it down.
11:35	Let’s draw a second object Diamond.
11:38	From the Drawing toolbar, click Basic Shapes and select a Diamond.
11:43	Move the cursor to the Draw page, drag it down. And from the menu bar, select Area Style / Filling drop down button and select color Red 3
11:55	Draw a third object, a Rectangle, and color the object as Green 6
12:02	Select the three objects by holding down the Shift key and clicking on each object.
12:11	Right-click for the Context menu and click Combine.
12:14	A new object is created!
12:18	Notice that the new object takes the color of the object that is last and at the back.
12:24	Let us undo this action by pressing the CTRL+Z keys together.
12:29	Select the figures again and right-click for the context menu.
12:35	Select Shapes and click Merge.
12:38	Another new shape is created!
12:41	Remember the more you experiment with these functions, the more you will learn.
12:48	This brings us to the end of the tutorial.
12:51	In this tutorial, you have learnt how to use Grids, Guides and snap lines to align objects accurately.
12:59	You have also learnt to Duplicate, Resize and distribute objects.
13:06	We also created new line styles and learnt how to form new objects using-
