MS Word 2010 - Working with Shapes

You can add a variety of shapes to your document including arrows, callouts, squares, stars, flowchart shapes and more. Want to set your name and address apart from the rest of your resume? Use a line. Need to create a diagram showing a timeline or process? Use the flowchart shapes. While you may not need shapes in every document you create, they can add visual appeal and clarity.

In this lesson you will learn how to insert a shape and format it by changing its fill color, outline color, shape style, and shadow effects. Additionally, you will learn how to apply 3-D effects to shapes.
