The easiest way to change the location, size and angle of element is to use your mouse.
- Move: Put the mouse pointer over the selected element, and then a move cursor will show on the element, (see the blue cursor in the left demonstration picture above), click and hold down the left mouse button, hold down the left mouse button as you drag the element to the desired new location. (A dashed outline of the element will move along with the cursor) When the outline of the element is in the desired new location, release the mouse button, and the selected element will be moved to the new location.
You can also move multiple elements into rows or columns by
clicking
the align buttons on Align panel(see the picture below). This is done by setting the horizontal and vertical alignment values for a group of selected elements to the same value by Barcode Label Maker automatically.
- Resize: Move your mouse over one of the square handles (see the green squares in the left demonstration picture above ), click and hold down the left mouse button. Continue to hold down the left mouse button as you drag the element to the desired size. (A dashed outline of the element will move along with the cursor when you drag the mouse.) When the outline of the element is in the desired new location, release the mouse button, the element will be changed to the new size.
- Rotate: Position your mouse pointer over the round handles on the left of the select element, you will find your mouse cursor change into a rotation cursor. (see the red round on the left demonstration picture above), click and hold down the left mouse button. Hold down the left mouse button as you rotate the element to the desired new angle. (A dashed outline of the element will rotate along with the cursor when you drag the mouse.) When the outline of the element is in the desired angle, release the mouse button, the element will be rotate to the new angle.
