What is the best way to insert a smaller shape into a larger shape eg triangle within triangle.
How do you line up/centre the shapes precisely?

RE: Shapes within shapes
Hi Angela
Thank you for your question; and welcome to the forum.
What can make lining up shapes difficult is that the shapes automatically attach themselves to specific points on the drawing grid. This has the effect that if you try to position a shape somewhere, it can 'jump' to a slightly different position.
Shapes can be easier to position in an exact location if you go to Tools - Snap and Glue and tick the Dynamic Grid box under Currently Active; then click OK.
I hope this helps.
Amanda
