Introduction

This chapter describes how to format the graphic objects created with the drawing tools described in Chapter 5.

The formatting of each graphic object, in addition to its size, rotation and position on the slide, is determined by a number of attributes that define the line, text and area fill of each object. These attributes (among others) also contribute to form a graphics style, so although this chapter discusses the formatting when applied manually to an object, you can use the same methods to build a collection of graphics styles.
