Click the Selection tool, drag it in the Titler panel to marquee-select the two 
objects, and press Delete to make a clean slate.
6
Select the Rounded Corner Rectangle tool, and Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-
drag (Mac OS) to draw from the center of the shape.
The center remains in the spot where you first clicked, and the figure changes 
shape and size around that point as you drag.
7
Select the Clipped Corner Rectangle tool, and Shift+Alt-drag (Windows) or 
Shift+Option-drag (Mac OS) to constrain the aspect ratio and draw from 
the center.

Select the Arc tool (A), and drag diagonally across the corner points to flip the 
shape diagonally as you draw.
#
 Note:
Not all shape 
tools have keyboard 
shortcuts.
#
 Note:
Pressing 
Shift creates shapes 
with symmetrical 
properties: circles, 
squares, and equilateral 
triangles. To maintain 
the original aspect 
ratio while resizing a 
shape you’ve already 
made, hold down the 
Shift key before making 
the change.
#
 Note:
You can 
adjust the amount 
of roundness of the 
rounded rectangles by 
adjusting the Fillet Size 
field in Title Properties.
