Use the Ellipse Tool to create circle or oval shapes. Position the cursor over your publication where you want the top left corner of your ellipse to begin. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor to where you would like the opposite corner. When your ellipse reaches the desired size and shape, release the mouse button. Set the attributes for the outline and interior colors using the Style Palette.


You can draw perfect circles by enabling the Snap to Grid feature or by holding down the Shift key while drawing or resizing the object.
