Exploring the Format Dialog Box


In this hour , you will learn a whole host of methods for manipulating images, many of which involve toolbar buttons and mouse techniques. If you forget some of these details, just remember that for every image in your documenst, regardless of its type, you can display a dialog box that contains options specific to that particular object type.

To display the dialog box, simply double-click the image. The name of the dialog box will be Format [object] . The exact name of the dialog box varies depending on the type of object you double-click. For example, if you double-click a drawing object, the dialog box will be labeled Format AutoShape, and if you double-click a photograph, it will be Format Picture. Figure 17.1 shows the Format AutoShape dialog box.
