Selection modes
There are three selection modes: moving and changing size, editing, and rotating points.
To set the default mode (either moving and changing sizes or editing) for selecting objects, click on
the Points button from the Drawing toolbar.
In standard mode (when you begin a new drawing), the Points button is not
active, and the default mode is for selections to be moved or changed in
size; these selections are indicated by small green squares.
When the Points button is active, the default mode is for selections to be
edited; these selections are indicated by blue squares. Some objects will
have one or more extra handles, which are larger or colored differently.
This is explained in more detail in Chapter 3 of the Draw Guide.
