You can add as many objects to a frame as you need. After objects are added, you can format them in any way you want. And if necessary, you can remove the formatting from the selected object(s) and apply the default formatting for that particular type of object (e.g., oval, rectangle, bubble, line).

Example
Let's say you are drawing a rectangle on a frame. When you select the rectangle tool from the local toolbar, the default factory settings are such that the rectangle initially has a thin black border and no fill color. You can apply, say, a green fill color to that object. If you then decide that you want to return to the default setting (in this case, no fill color), you can use this feature.
How to Use the Default Look for Objects
- Select one or more objects on a frame. To select multiple objects, hold down the CTRL key and click each object.
- Do one of the following, depending on the part of the user interface you are using:
Ribbon Select Home>
.- Right-Click Right-click the object and select Use Default Look.
A message asks if you want to use the default settings of the object type. If you selected objects based on various types (e.g., oval, rectangle, line), the default settings of the first object type you selected are used. (The first object selected has orange handles, while the other selected objects have white handles.)
- Click Yes.
- Click
to save your work.
Note You can also change the default look of any object type. See Setting the Default Look for Objects.
