Add stylized shapes or graphics to an image

When you add a shape or graphic to an image, the shape or graphic is a new layer and does not affect the original image.

  1. In the Content palette, do one of the following:
    • Click the Filter For Graphics or Filter For Shapes icon.

    • Choose from the category menu (for example, Event or Activity), and choose a subcategory (for example, Baby or Cooking).

  2. Then, in the toolbox, choose a color for the shape.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • Select a thumbnail and click Apply.

    • Double-click a thumbnail.

    • Drag the thumbnail to the image.

  4. Use the Move tool to relocate or resize the shape or graphic.
