Warping

 In the warping mode, shapes can be transformed dramatically by dragging the “+” handles at the corners.
Dragging along the sides results in the same effects as slanting above, but can be combined with the
dragging of corners to create many different variations on the original shape:

 Holding the Shift key or the Ctrl Key while dragging a corner allows the warping to extend even further!

 Note: throughout this user manual, screen shots of shapes will sometimes appear without the gridlines of
the virtual mat in the background and without the bounding boxes around the shape(s). This was done to
make the images appear clearer and less cluttered.

3.14 Changing Color, Texture, and Line Style

 There are three ways to access the functions for changing the Color, Texture or Line Style of a selected
shape:

 Right click on the screen and select Change Color/Texture/Line
 On the Layer Bar, open the layer, locate the shape, and click on the Change Shape Color icon
 Press Ctrl+Shift+U (Color), Ctrl-Shift+O (Texture), Ctrl+Shift+Y (Line Style)

Changing Color

 In the Color window, you can click on any of the Basic colors or create a custom color.
