All Ink shapes that can be added to the Ink canvas can be edited to change their attributes such as size, colors, font, line style, etc. Selected Shapes can also be moved to change their position on the Ink canvas.
Selecting Ink shapes
To edit an existing shape or group of shapes, you must first select the shape or shapes to be edited.
You must first click the Selection Toolbar button to display the selection cross cursor.
With the selection cursor active you can choose to try and select a shape by clicking in its center with the left mouse key or dragging the selection cursor on the canvas to draw a selection boundary. Left mouse-click on the Ink canvas and while holding the left mouse key down, drag a selection boundary around the shape or groups of shapes to be selected. If a selection boundary intersects a shape, then that shape will not be selected.
Edit existing Text shape
When editing an existing Ink Text shape, you must first select it using the Ink selection cursor. Press the key combination Ctrl+Enter on the selected Text shape to change the Ink Text shape to a Text Box Control element that can then be edited to change its text value or other attributes such as font, text stroke color, size, etc.
This sequence of images shows the unselected Text shape, the selected Text shape with its selection rectangle, and the Text shape in its edit mode when pressing Ctrl+Enter.
Drawing Line shapes
To draw a line shape with arrow ends select the type of line style to use from the Toolbar. Left mouse-click on the Ink canvas and while holding the left mouse key, drag the line shape to its desired size.
Erasing Ink shapes
You can quickly erase existing Ink from the canvas by selecting the Ink Eraser from the Toolbar and swiping shapes using a left mouse-click drag motion on the canvas shape. You can also undo/redo strokes by pressing the key combinations Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y. You can also press the Delete key to remove selected Ink shapes from the canvas.
