You can add lines, borders, shapes, and symbols from the left sidebar in the Venngage Editor.
Add a Line or Border
-
In the left sidebar, click on Shapes and Lines to expand the menu.
-
Click on the Lines/Borders category to open the options.
-
From the gallery, click on a line or border to add it to your design canvas.
You can also use the Icon Search to narrow your results. Simply type in your search term and click the magnifying glass icon or press Enter on your keyboard.
Resize a Line or Border
-
Resize a line or border by dragging the bounding box handles.
-
To rotate the line or shape outline, use the circular arrow at the top of the bounding box. Click and drag to change its orientation.
Add a Shape or Symbol
-
In the left sidebar, click on Icons and type "Symbols" in the search bar.
-
Symbols are abstract icons that come pre-colored, and you can customize their size or rotation.
-
Shapes are simple geometric elements that are fully customizable. You can change their color, size, orientation, and fill, just like borders and lines.
Click on a symbol or shape thumbnail to add it directly to your design canvas.
Resize Shapes or Symbols
-
Symbols behave like normal icons. Click to select a symbol, then use the bounding box handles to resize it. Click and drag the handles away to make the symbol larger, or toward the center to make it smaller. The symbol will resize proportionally to maintain its aspect ratio.
-
To rotate the symbol, click the circular arrow at the bottom of the bounding box and drag to change its orientation.
Resizing and reshaping shapes is simple using the bounding box handles:
-
Resize the entire shape: Click on the shape to select it, then use the corner handles on the bounding box. Click and drag to resize the shape proportionally.
-
Resize individual sides: To adjust just one side, select the shape and drag the center handle on any side of the bounding box. Click and drag to make that side larger or smaller.
