These drawing elements are created in draw mode, which you can start with the DRAW menu
or the Draw toolbar. Once in draw mode, the mouse pointer becomes a cross wire, and you
can draw lines, rectangles, rounded rectangles, ellipses, or polygons on the sheet. Click on the
sheet and draw the element with pressed mouse button. If you press, in addition, the SHIFT
key, you can create a quadrate in the rectangle and a circle in the ellipse mode. To finish draw
mode, press the ESC key or double-click the sheet background.
