00:23 | Here, we are using: Ubuntu Linux, version 10.04 and LibreOffice Suite, version 3.3.4. |
00:32 | Let us open our 'Routemap' drawing once again. |
00:37 | Previously, we learnt to draw curves and polygons. Now, let us learn how to edit them. |
00:42 | Let’s change the shape of the School Campus. |
00:48 | We will use the Edit Points toolbar to do this. |
00:52 | From the Main menu, click View, select Toolbars and click Edit Points. |
01:00 | The Edit Points toolbar is displayed. |
01:04 | Now, let us select the polygon School Campus. |
01:09 | Click the Points icon on the Edit Points tool bar. |
01:12 | In the object, the green selection handles will change to blue edit points. This indicates you are in the Edit point mode. |
01:23 | On the Edit Points toolbar, click on the Insert points icon. |
01:29 | Move to the Draw page. The cursor will turn into a plus sign. |
01:35 | Place this plus sign on the left side outline of the School Campus polygon. |
01:41 | Press the left mouse-button and drag it to the right. Release the button. You have inserted a point. |
01:51 | Now, click on the point that was inserted. The options in the Edit Points toolbar are enabled. |
02:00 | Click on Symmetric Transition. |
02:03 | The dotted control line appears next to the point. |
02:07 | Let’s drag the control line outwards to change the shape of the campus. The shape has changed! |
02:16 | To exit from the Edit Points toolbar, click Points. |
02:21 | Now, let’s elongate the campus to the right side. |
02:26 | Let’s specifically move only the last point on the top right. |
02:30 | Select the School Campus polygon. |
02:34 | Let’s enable the Edit Points toolbar. |
02:38 | The blue edit points appear on the object. Let us select this point. |
02:45 | On the Edit Points toolbar, click Move points. |
02:50 | You will see that the selected point becomes dark blue. |
02:54 | Now, let’s drag the point to the right. |
