Adjusting smart polygon Auto Shapes

Smart Polygons initially appear as pentagons with four control points. There are control points for resizing and rotating, adding or removing polygon segments, increasing or decreasing the number of polygon sides, and adding an inner polygon to the shape to create a ring.

To resize or rotate a selected smart polygon, do one of the following:

• Drag the scale/rotate control point.
• Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Macintosh) the scale/rotate control point to rotate only.

To add or remove sections from a selected smart polygon:

• Drag the sections control point.

To change the number of sides on a selected smart polygon:

• Drag the sides control point.

To split a selected smart polygon into segments.

• Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Macintosh) the sides control point.

To resize the inner polygon of a smart polygon, do one of the following:

• If the polygon has an inner polygon, drag the inner polygon control point.
• If the polygon has no inner polygon, drag the reset inner polygon control point.

To reset the inner polygon of a selected smart polygon:

• Click the reset inner polygon control point.
