Selecting Graphics

The procedure for selecting graphics depends on the Windows application you use. In a word processing program such as WordPad or Microsoft Word, you select a graphic by clicking the object. In a program such as Paint, however, there are special tools for selecting shapes. Because the procedure may vary, you should refer to the instructions for each application. However, no matter how you select a graphic, small handles appear on the corners and sides of the graphic frame to indicate it is ready to copy or move.
