Rectangle Tool
With the Rectangle Tool, one can draw rectangular Live Shapes.
How to Use
A new rectangle is drawn while the tool is active by pressing the left mouse button and dragging the mouse.
Rectangles have two resize handles in opposite corners. Dragging the resize handles resizes the rectangle's width and height together.
Rectangles also have corner radius handles to set the shape of the corners. There are two radius dimensions which can be set either together or independently.
Hotkeys
-
Ctrl+Drag on handles constrains the width and height of the rectangle while resizing so that they retain their current ratios when resizing; when drawing a new rectangle, this method will create a perfect square.
-
Shift+Drag on handles resizes the rectangle from its center and not from the opposite corner of the grabbed handle; when drawing a new rectangle, the rectangle will be drawn with its center at the starting point rather than one of its corners.
SHIFT+Click on a rounding handle removes rounding.
CTRL+Click on a rounding handle makes rounding radii equal.
