Outline Shapes

You can now quickly create outlines of shapes or groups in Easel!

How to Use

There are two ways to outline shapes:

  1. Right-click on a shape, and then select the "Outline" option. (You can also right-click with multiple shapes selected.)
  2. With one or more shapes selected, choose "Outline" from the Edit menu.

After selecting the Outline action, a window will appear letting you choose the outline mode and gap size.

Outline Modes

The outline tool supports two modes:

  1. Shrink wrap: The default. This mode follows all the contours of the shapes. It also supports a gap size setting to limit the size of the contours and internal corners that the outline will follow
  2. Rubber band: Imagine wrapping a rubber band around your selection of shapes.
