Skewing objects

Skewing an object transforms it by slanting it along one or both horizontal and vertical axes. You can skew an object by dragging.

To skew a selected object:

1 Display the transformation handles:
Choose the Skew Transform tool
Choose Modify > Transform > Skew.
2 Drag a handle to distort the object.

To achieve the illusion of perspective:

Drag a corner point.
