Performing basic object customization

As well as being added to the drawing pane, new objects are added to the object list in the Symbol Outline pane. By default, they are given the name of their object type. For example, the rectangle object created in Adding an object is called Rectangle.
To change the size and name of an object:
  1. Select the Rectangle object.
  2. Click the Transform tab in the Styling Customizer.
  3. Type 120 in the Width field and press Enter.
    The rectangle resizes to the new width.
  4. Type 30 in the Height field and press Enter.
    The rectangle resizes to the new height.
  5. Click the General tab.
  6. Type progressbar in the Name field and press Enter.
    The object name changes in the Symbol Outline pane.
Note
  1. All object, palette and category names must be single words containing only alphanumeric characters.
  2. In the Symbol Editor, all measurements are in pixels.
