Drawing an ellipse or circle
You can draw a perfect ellipse or circle.
To draw an ellipse or circle
- In the toolbox, click Ellipse
- Below the toolbox, click a fill style.
- Drag the pointer to draw the ellipse or circle.
Notes
- When you drag the pointer, the foreground color is used to draw the line surrounding the shape, and the background color is used to fill the shape. To use the background color to draw the line surrounding the shape and the foreground color to fill the shape, hold down the right mouse button and drag the pointer.
- You can draw a circle by holding down SHIFT while you drag the pointer.
- The border width of the circle or ellipse is the same as the thickness selected for the line tools. To change the border thickness, click the line or curve tool in the toolbox, and then click the thickness you want in the box below the toolbox.
