1 0:00:00,60 --> 0:00:01,60 - [Instructor] Well, here's where we get to have 2 0:00:01,60 --> 0:00:03,40 some fun with our document 3 0:00:03,40 --> 0:00:07,10 by creating some visual interest with graphics. 4 0:00:07,10 --> 0:00:10,20 We'll talk about inserting shapes and icons, 5 0:00:10,20 --> 0:00:13,20 adding photos and other types of the images, 6 0:00:13,20 --> 0:00:17,00 and making changes and adjustments to those in this chapter. 7 0:00:17,00 --> 0:00:20,00 Let's begin, though, with adding a shape, 8 0:00:20,00 --> 0:00:22,50 or an icon to our document. 9 0:00:22,50 --> 0:00:26,00 We'll continue working with our Tech Connect document 0701 10 0:00:26,00 --> 0:00:27,80 if you're catching up. 11 0:00:27,80 --> 0:00:30,90 And let's go down to the bottom of page two. 12 0:00:30,90 --> 0:00:32,60 Now, we can go anywhere in a document 13 0:00:32,60 --> 0:00:36,10 and start inserting things like shapes and icons. 14 0:00:36,10 --> 0:00:38,30 But if we want it to appear, say, at the bottom 15 0:00:38,30 --> 0:00:42,40 of every one of our pages, starting at page two here, 16 0:00:42,40 --> 0:00:45,00 we could instead go down to the footer area 17 0:00:45,00 --> 0:00:46,20 to insert our shape. 18 0:00:46,20 --> 0:00:47,50 Let's do that. 19 0:00:47,50 --> 0:00:49,20 Double click below the two, 20 0:00:49,20 --> 0:00:51,60 now we're in the footer for section one. 21 0:00:51,60 --> 0:00:53,10 Now click anywhere down there 22 0:00:53,10 --> 0:00:55,70 to deselect the page numbering, 23 0:00:55,70 --> 0:00:57,20 and instead of typing something, 24 0:00:57,20 --> 0:00:59,90 we'll insert something that's graphical in nature. 25 0:00:59,90 --> 0:01:01,90 Let's go up to the insert tab. 26 0:01:01,90 --> 0:01:03,70 Now, we'll start with icons. 27 0:01:03,70 --> 0:01:05,00 There are a number of different icons 28 0:01:05,00 --> 0:01:07,30 in different categories to choose from. 29 0:01:07,30 --> 0:01:09,90 It's gonna open up this whole new window. 30 0:01:09,90 --> 0:01:12,60 You'll see all the categories down the left. 31 0:01:12,60 --> 0:01:14,90 For example, if we go down to weather and seasons, 32 0:01:14,90 --> 0:01:17,40 we might wanna insert this sun. 33 0:01:17,40 --> 0:01:21,20 With it selected and checked off, we'll click insert. 34 0:01:21,20 --> 0:01:23,30 Now, it gets inserted at a default size 35 0:01:23,30 --> 0:01:27,60 but we can go to the handles to size this down. 36 0:01:27,60 --> 0:01:29,60 If we wanna move it around, 37 0:01:29,60 --> 0:01:31,60 we have to change how it's anchored. 38 0:01:31,60 --> 0:01:33,60 Right now, when we saw that cursor flashing 39 0:01:33,60 --> 0:01:35,60 on the left hand side of our screen, 40 0:01:35,60 --> 0:01:39,00 well, it's just any other character, it's anchored. 41 0:01:39,00 --> 0:01:40,90 Well, we can change how it's anchored 42 0:01:40,90 --> 0:01:44,50 by either going to this little popup for layout options, 43 0:01:44,50 --> 0:01:48,50 or by going up to the format tab under graphics tools. 44 0:01:48,50 --> 0:01:50,80 You can see there's a wrap text dropdown. 45 0:01:50,80 --> 0:01:54,10 Click that and this is just to decide how text, 46 0:01:54,10 --> 0:01:56,60 if we add any, is going to wrap around 47 0:01:56,60 --> 0:01:59,80 instead of being in line with text, like any other character 48 0:01:59,80 --> 0:02:01,70 that's why it's over there on the left, 49 0:02:01,70 --> 0:02:04,00 we can choose one of these. 50 0:02:04,00 --> 0:02:06,30 I'm gonna go with square. 51 0:02:06,30 --> 0:02:10,00 Now I can take this and move it anywhere down here 52 0:02:10,00 --> 0:02:12,80 in my footer area. 53 0:02:12,80 --> 0:02:16,10 I can resize it with the handles, maybe a little bit bigger 54 0:02:16,10 --> 0:02:19,80 and we can make adjustments to the formatting, as well. 55 0:02:19,80 --> 0:02:22,30 Notice the graphic styles. 56 0:02:22,30 --> 0:02:24,80 We can choose something like a reddish color, 57 0:02:24,80 --> 0:02:27,10 or maybe just an outline. 58 0:02:27,10 --> 0:02:28,30 If we don't like that color, 59 0:02:28,30 --> 0:02:30,30 we can change the outline color. 60 0:02:30,30 --> 0:02:32,80 Let's go to a nice dark red. 61 0:02:32,80 --> 0:02:35,80 We can make it thicker by going to the weight, 62 0:02:35,80 --> 0:02:39,90 bumping it up from one, say, to one and a half like so. 63 0:02:39,90 --> 0:02:41,30 All cool things that we can do. 64 0:02:41,30 --> 0:02:43,60 But what we can't do is actually get in there 65 0:02:43,60 --> 0:02:45,80 and type something inside. 66 0:02:45,80 --> 0:02:47,30 So it's not going to suit out needs, 67 0:02:47,30 --> 0:02:49,00 I think we need a graphic down there 68 0:02:49,00 --> 0:02:51,20 that kinda looks like a sun with a 30 69 0:02:51,20 --> 0:02:55,00 for Red30 in the center, so hit your delete key. 70 0:02:55,00 --> 0:02:58,20 That removes the icon, we're back to the page numbering 71 0:02:58,20 --> 0:03:01,40 being highlighted, just click anywhere to deselect. 72 0:03:01,40 --> 0:03:05,10 Instead we'll go to insert, this time go to shapes. 73 0:03:05,10 --> 0:03:08,20 Shapes also have categories, lines, rectangles, 74 0:03:08,20 --> 0:03:11,90 basic shapes, arrows, you can see some cool ones down below 75 0:03:11,90 --> 0:03:14,40 for stars and banners, for example. 76 0:03:14,40 --> 0:03:17,60 I think this basic shape here kinda looks like a sun 77 0:03:17,60 --> 0:03:18,50 and it is. 78 0:03:18,50 --> 0:03:20,20 We'll give it a click. 79 0:03:20,20 --> 0:03:22,60 Now, unlike an icon, we actually get to choose 80 0:03:22,60 --> 0:03:23,90 where this is going to go 81 0:03:23,90 --> 0:03:26,20 and we click and drag to drop. 82 0:03:26,20 --> 0:03:28,00 Notice your mouse is a cross here. 83 0:03:28,00 --> 0:03:30,40 So let's go back over to the right corner, 84 0:03:30,40 --> 0:03:34,00 click and drag across and down to get a nice big sun 85 0:03:34,00 --> 0:03:35,40 and release. 86 0:03:35,40 --> 0:03:37,60 Notice the handles around the outside, 87 0:03:37,60 --> 0:03:40,50 so we can resize it, if we need to. 88 0:03:40,50 --> 0:03:41,80 Bring it up a little bit. 89 0:03:41,80 --> 0:03:45,50 And this extra handle on the inside for adjusting, 90 0:03:45,50 --> 0:03:48,50 the ellipse in the center versus the rays. 91 0:03:48,50 --> 0:03:51,10 Let's click and drag in and out until you get exactly 92 0:03:51,10 --> 0:03:52,70 what you're looking for. 93 0:03:52,70 --> 0:03:55,10 And, of course, we can format this, as well. 94 0:03:55,10 --> 0:03:57,50 Look at the format tab selected up here. 95 0:03:57,50 --> 0:04:00,40 Instead of graphic styles, we see shape styles now, 96 0:04:00,40 --> 0:04:02,80 and we see many of the same ones. 97 0:04:02,80 --> 0:04:05,00 We can select something like an outline. 98 0:04:05,00 --> 0:04:08,30 Change that outline to that deeper red. 99 0:04:08,30 --> 0:04:11,40 Change the outline by going back to the dropdown, 100 0:04:11,40 --> 0:04:15,80 click it and hover over weight and select something heavier 101 0:04:15,80 --> 0:04:17,70 like one and a half points. 102 0:04:17,70 --> 0:04:19,00 There we go. 103 0:04:19,00 --> 0:04:20,30 Here's what's really cool, though. 104 0:04:20,30 --> 0:04:22,50 With it selected, we can just start typing. 105 0:04:22,50 --> 0:04:23,90 Type in 30. 106 0:04:23,90 --> 0:04:26,00 You can see it goes right in the center there 107 0:04:26,00 --> 0:04:28,80 and it's using the default text formatting. 108 0:04:28,80 --> 0:04:33,00 So we can click and drag over the 30 to select it 109 0:04:33,00 --> 0:04:35,20 and with it highlighted, we can start doing things 110 0:04:35,20 --> 0:04:37,80 to the text, right here from the formatting tool bar. 111 0:04:37,80 --> 0:04:39,40 Like bolding it. 112 0:04:39,40 --> 0:04:42,90 Changing the color to that same red, if we wanted to 113 0:04:42,90 --> 0:04:45,40 and bumping up the size. 114 0:04:45,40 --> 0:04:47,60 Let's go us to 12 points. 115 0:04:47,60 --> 0:04:51,60 Click anywhere in the footer area to deselect 116 0:04:51,60 --> 0:04:55,50 and then double click up above to see what that looks like. 117 0:04:55,50 --> 0:04:58,50 So we've inserted the shape because we did it in a footer, 118 0:04:58,50 --> 0:05:01,30 it should appear at the bottom of the next page. 119 0:05:01,30 --> 0:05:03,00 And it does. 120 0:05:03,00 --> 0:05:05,10 And the next and so on. 121 0:05:05,10 --> 0:05:06,90 And we could have done anywhere on our page, 122 0:05:06,90 --> 0:05:09,70 but by doing it in the footer, we get to see it repeated 123 0:05:09,70 --> 0:05:12,50 without having to do the work ourselves. 124 0:05:12,50 --> 0:05:14,90 So that's working with shapes. 125 0:05:14,90 --> 0:05:17,80 Maybe it would be better if we had an actual logo, 126 0:05:17,80 --> 0:05:21,40 a Red30 graphic that we could use instead of that shape 127 0:05:21,40 --> 0:05:23,40 which kinda looks homemade. 128 0:05:23,40 --> 0:05:28,40 We'll talk about that next.
