Working with objects overview

Macromedia FreeHand lets you manipulate objects in a number of ways. You can group objects to treat them as a single unit and nest groups within a group. You can move objects using the mouse or keyboard or by specifying a precise location. You can align objects to each other or align them to the page.

FreeHand provides enhanced cut-and-paste functions that let you control how objects are copied to and from your drawings. You can also clone or duplicate objects.

You can make global selections or replacements within a drawing by searching for graphics with particular attributes, such as stroke width or shape.
