Adding an Anchor Element

You can add an anchor to your form. The size of the anchor is user-defined.

To add an anchor:

  1. On the Form Elements toolbar, select the tool Anchor.
  2. Click in the form where you wish an anchor to be added, hold down the left mouse button and drag the mouse diagonally. A rectangle will appear on the screen. The anchor (against the white background) will be placed in the top left corner of the rectangle once you have released the mouse.

Note.You can also create an element with a single click of the mouse: once you have selected the required tool, simply click in the form where you wish the element to be added. The default element size will be used. To place several elements of the same type on your form, hold down the Ctrl key and click repeatedly where you wish the elements to be positioned.

The default type of anchor added to each new form with basic elements is black square. If you wish to change the anchor type to corner, right-click the anchor and select Properties on the shortcut menu. In the dialog box that opens, change the type of the anchor.
