Selecting Elements

Most operations on an element require that you select the element first. When an

element is selected it will have drag handles and a rotate handle.

Select an element by choosing the Select Tool and then selecting the element in the

Scrapbook page. To deselect an element use the Select Tool to select anywhere outside

of the element's bounding box.

To select multiple elements draw a rectangle around the elements with the Select Tool

or select multiple elements individually while holding the Shift key.

To select all elements on a Scrapbook page at once:

Select Edit > Select All, or

Press Command+A on your keyboard.

Moving, Rotating and Resizing Elements

When moving or rotating multiple elements at one time, you must first select the elements

using the Select Tool, then draw a rectangle around the elements to create a temporary

group.

Move an element on a Scrapbook page by selecting it and dragging it to the new location.

To rotate an element, first select the element and then click and hold the top handle. The

mouse cursor will change to circular arrows to indicate that you are ready to rotate the

element. If you are rotating a group of elements you can grab the handle of the group. Drag

the handle clockwise or counter-clockwise to rotate.

To resize an element, first select the element and then click and drag one of the square

handles. The element will resize as you drag.

Maintain Aspect Ratio: To maintain the element's aspect ratio while resizing,

only drag using a corner drag handle.

Ignore Aspect Ratio : To resize an element without maintaining the element's

aspect ratio, drag using a side drag handle.

Ordering Elements

Elements exist on a Scrapbook page in the order that you placed them there. The last

element added to a page will be on top of and may cover elements added previously. The

order that elements are displayed in is referred to as the Z-order.

To move an element forward or backward in the Z-order, first you must select the element

using the Select Tool. Once an element is selected it can be moved in front of or behind

other elements by choosing one of the following options from the Edit menu: Bring to Front

, Send to Back, Bring Forward or Send Backward.
