style and specify attributes,
such as type, number, length, and spacing.
Drawing a graphic

main toolbar
to create rectangles, ellipses, lines, and three-dimensional shapes

Adding lines
You can incorporate lines into your text with custom angles,
width, color, and other attributes.
Inserting Objects From the Clip Art
You can insert an object in a document either as a copy
or as a link. A copy of an object is independent of the original object,
and changes to the original object have no effect on the copy. A link
remains dependent on the original object. Changes to the original
object are also reflected in the link.
Properties panel
The Properties panel consists of object property groups
frequently used in IBM Lotus
Symphony .
You are able to set properties for the selected objects easily with
Properties panel.
Inserting links to Lotus Notes documents
If you have IBM Lotus Notes® installed
on your computer, you can insert
Lotus Notes
links
into the documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.
