Using the Page Control Toolbar

You can insert page controls by using the page control toolbar. When you click one of the page control buttons, the cursor changes to a cross-shaped icon or hand, depending on which control type you select. You can then move the cursor to where you want to position the control and click once. If you select a control from the toolbar erroneously and want to cancel the selection, press the Esc key and then select the desired page control button.

If the control is a fixed size during insertion, the cursor changes to a cross-shaped icon. If the control type requires that you define the size of the control at the time of insertion, the cursor changes to the monogrammed hand icon. When a hand-shaped icon appears, press and hold the left mouse button as you drag the hand diagonally downward to where you want the lower, right-hand corner of the frame. Release the mouse button.

If the control is not correct the first time that you draw it, you can easily adjust it. The dotted box and black or blue handles surrounding the control indicate that it is selected. Use any of the four directional arrow keys on the keyboard to move the frame one page grid unit in the indicated direction. You can also use Shift+ the arrow key to resize the page control.
