Using the Assets panel to add Auto Shapes to a drawing

The Assets panel contains a Shapes tab where you can find additional Auto Shapes. These Auto Shapes are generally more complex than those that appear in the Tools panel. Instead of drawing these Auto Shapes directly on the canvas, you place these Auto Shapes into your drawing by dragging them from the Assets panel to the canvas.

To create an Auto Shape using the Assets panel:

1. Select Window > Auto Shapes to display the Shapes tab, if it is not already visible.
2. Drag a Auto Shape preview from the Assets panel to the canvas.
3. If desired, edit the Auto Shape by dragging any of its control points.
