You use the graphic creation tools from the Tool menu to draw graphics onto a drawing surface called a canvas. The Arrow tool lets you select and manipulate the canvas graphics or create text. The Color and Pen menus let you apply color and line width to the selected graphics. The Text menu lets you select, edit, and manipulate text as you create it with the Text tool.
After you've created a graphic or text, use the Arrow tool from the Tool menu to select a graphic. Click on a graphic to select it and deselect others. When you select a graphic, GrafEdit highlights that item with a feedback graphic so you can manipulate your selected graphic. The feedbacker associated with the graphic lets you move, stretch, or rotate the graphic. You can change pen width and frame and fill color of your graphics by selecting options from the Color and Pen menus. Use options from the Text menu to change the paragraph, character and font styles for your text graphics.
