3rd Lesson! Corel DRAW – Pick Tool – Skew

August 2, 2008

Dear Members,

Let us continue from the previous lesson. We will learn to skew the object.

  1. Open Corel DRAW.
  2. Draw rectangle. Keep it selected.
  3. If deselected by mistake, select it using pick tool
  4. Click it once again on the rectangle.
  5. Observe the difference carefully.
  6. Basic selection points are turned into arrows.
  7. This time, we will work with the middle points.
  8. You will find straight arrow points in the middle of the
    four lines of the rectangle.
  9. Place the cursor on the middle point of the top horizontal
    line.
  10. The cursor is changed from pointer into double straight line
    arrows with opposite left right direction. That represents Skew
    movement.
  11. Press and drag to the left or right.
  12. Rectangle gets skewed.
