Working with boxes

Search in Rpv Software:
The boxes are inserted with the tool available on the main toolbar.

Inserting a box is very simple. It is necessary to click on the box tool and place it into a section or subsection.

A box with a predefined size will be inserted. It can be altered using the properties page or the mouse.
