DISCUSSION

    Most shapes in ClarisDraw and ClarisImpact can be Reshaped simply by selecting the object and choosing Reshape from the Arrange menu. Some objects cannot be reshaped or reshaped with just one menu command.

    Objects created with the following tools cannot be directly reshaped:

    - Line Tool
    The Line Tool cannot be reshaped even though the Reshape command is available when a line is selected.

    - Arc Tool
    The Arc Tool can be reshaped in two ways. If you select the Arc and then choose Reshape, you will be able to grab the beginning or end point and increase or decrease the amount of degrees in the arc. If you select the Arc and use the Convert to Bezigon menu command (Convert to Bezigon is only available in ClarisDraw) you will be able to reshape the the Arc by adding new points.

    - Rectangle Tool
    - Round Rectangle Tool
    - Oval Tool
    These shapes can only be reshaped in ClarisDraw, and can only be reshaped by using the Convert to Bezigon menu command and then choosing Reshape from the Arrange menu.
