Shape Tools

 
A variety of shapes can be drawn on a page to highlight, callout, detail and markup a drawing. These shapes can be pre-styled using Styles or can be individually styled using the shape properties or formatting toolbar that is displayed when a shape is selected. In addition, notes or comments can be attached to shapes to further detail the purpose of the callout.
 
Click the callouts below to see examples of each shape tool.
