00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:10.380
Hello InDesign people, we're going to look at rounded corners.

00:00:10.380 --> 00:00:12.030
We're going to do it to this box that we did with

00:00:12.030 --> 00:00:15.630
this cool transparency and just do one corner, like this guy.

00:00:15.630 --> 00:00:17.520
You can also do full round corners and

00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:21.440
all these other weird corners that you probably never going to use.

00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:25.170
So let's go and look at rounded corners in InDesign.

00:00:25.170 --> 00:00:27.480
So we're going to practice with a box over here.

00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:29.930
So grab your rectangle tool and click hold,

00:00:29.930 --> 00:00:32.600
drag it out box, give it a fill color and no stroke.

00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:38.885
I'm going to give it a fill of green hat red and I'm going to give it a stroke of none.

00:00:38.885 --> 00:00:40.985
Rounded corners, grab the black arrow,

00:00:40.985 --> 00:00:45.290
click on this and you've probably always wondered what the hang this things full.

00:00:45.290 --> 00:00:48.275
It is for editing the corners, give it a click,

00:00:48.275 --> 00:00:51.845
and nothing happens, but you get these diamonds in the corner,

00:00:51.845 --> 00:00:53.540
so grab one of the yellow diamonds.

00:00:53.540 --> 00:00:58.265
Let's grab the top, click hold and drag to the left end.

00:00:58.265 --> 00:01:01.205
You, my friends now I have rounded the corners,

00:01:01.205 --> 00:01:03.260
so if you end up clicking off by accident,

00:01:03.260 --> 00:01:05.525
click back on, click the square,

00:01:05.525 --> 00:01:07.370
it launches that diamonds,

00:01:07.370 --> 00:01:10.520
which you can go back and start dragging left and right,

00:01:10.520 --> 00:01:12.650
not up and down, and increase them up a little bit.

00:01:12.650 --> 00:01:14.430
Let's look at the different kinds of corners.

00:01:14.430 --> 00:01:16.640
By default, it's two-rounded corners,

00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:19.115
but you can see by that little popup window here,

00:01:19.115 --> 00:01:23.435
you can hold down the "Alt" key on a Mac "Option" key backwards.

00:01:23.435 --> 00:01:26.480
It is ocean key on a Mac and Alt key on a PC.

00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:31.235
Give it a click and you get pixel space invaders version of the corners.

00:01:31.235 --> 00:01:32.480
I have never used themes.

00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:35.060
Keep holding down that key "Option" on a Mac,

00:01:35.060 --> 00:01:37.375
Alt on a PC, keep clicking.

00:01:37.375 --> 00:01:39.510
You get those ones,

00:01:39.510 --> 00:01:41.745
you get those ones,

00:01:41.745 --> 00:01:45.230
and eventually they pop back into the corners and you've got to let

00:01:45.230 --> 00:01:48.200
go of option and drag them back out again, it's up to you.

00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.110
Now one of the things we're going to do is show you how to do them individually.

00:01:51.110 --> 00:01:53.750
So I'm going to click and drag them back into the corner as

00:01:53.750 --> 00:01:56.390
far as it'll go and it'll get them back to being nice sharp corners.

00:01:56.390 --> 00:01:58.850
Now if you hold down the "Shift" key on your keyboard,

00:01:58.850 --> 00:02:02.765
hold it down and then start dragging to the left. Like that.

00:02:02.765 --> 00:02:04.830
It will become one corner only,

00:02:04.830 --> 00:02:08.180
and this happens quite a bit with these kind of factoid things.

00:02:08.180 --> 00:02:10.850
I'm going to click on this,

00:02:10.850 --> 00:02:12.650
to get the corners, hold down,

00:02:12.650 --> 00:02:17.465
shift, grab this one and make this a rounded corner.

00:02:17.465 --> 00:02:19.205
We're going to put a little pull coat,

00:02:19.205 --> 00:02:21.980
or little factoid in there.

00:02:21.980 --> 00:02:26.105
That's where maybe this corner one becomes "O" case and click on this one,

00:02:26.105 --> 00:02:30.135
drag, it's just this one.

00:02:30.135 --> 00:02:32.630
I'm going to hold down my what was it?

00:02:32.630 --> 00:02:34.595
Alt key or the Option key,

00:02:34.595 --> 00:02:38.050
and then you could do something like that.

00:02:38.050 --> 00:02:41.540
The cool thing about that is it's part of

00:02:41.540 --> 00:02:45.335
it and it can be resized and all other nice things.

00:02:45.335 --> 00:02:47.060
That is rounded corners,

00:02:47.060 --> 00:02:50.855
let's move on to the next one where we looked at maybe some drop caps,

00:02:50.855 --> 00:02:53.250
drop caps, cool. Let's go do that.
