Rotating and shearing objects

To rotate objects:

1. With the Move Tool, select one or more objects.
2. Do one of the following:
   • Drag the object's rotation handle.
   • Position the cursor close to one of the object's corner handles and drag on the page when the cursor changes.

• Double-click at any corner handle when you see the rotation cursor.

To move the transform origin:

1. Select one or more objects.
2. Select the Move Tool, then click Enable Transform Origin on the context toolbar. The origin shows centrally within the object or selection.
3. Drag the origin to a new position in the selected object, another object, or anywhere on the page.

Once you've moved the origin, you can rotate your object(s) about it as described above. If using the Transform panel, rotation is about this custom origin unless you choose to override this and use the panel's Anchor point selector instead.

• Double-click the transform origin.

To shear objects:

1. With the Move Tool, select one or more objects.
2. Position the cursor close to one of the object or selection's side handles and drag on the page.

• Double-click at any edge handle when you see the shear cursor.
