Info
The Info portion of the Sidebar contains attribute options for shapes, lines, paths, and text. Each tab corresponds to a set of attributes and is explained in further detail below.
Values displayed in the Info portion of the Sidebar default to Inches or Degrees. However, alternative units of measurement (i.e., centimeters, meters, feet, yards, etc.) or radians can be entered into these fields. The entered values will be automatically converted to their equivalent in Inches or Degrees.
For example, let’s say that 10 centimeters (10 cm) has been entered for the Width of a selected figure. This value will be automatically converted to Inches after pressing on the Enter Key on your keyboard or selecting another item within the application.
If you enter 100 millimeters (mm) for the Width of a selected figure, then it will be automatically converted to 3.937 inches, as shown below:
