00.00	Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Fill Objects with Color in LibreOffice Draw.
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
00.17	Create new colors
00.20	Let us begin by opening the file WaterCycle.
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,lets 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 black 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” and 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” and 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.
