You can manipulate and reshape the points and contours of a shape, caption or panel you've already placed on a page. Before you can edit shapes in this way, you need to make it editable.
Red points appear on the shape. Drag the points to edit the shape. Later, to edit an element whose shape has been made editable, click it twice slowly.
