  • Rectangle ()
  • Square () - in the rectangle menu of the tool bar
  • Circle ()
• To place the object, click the mouse in the workspace for a default-size object, or click and drag the mouse for a custom size.

You can change the size of the object at any time by selecting it with the mouse and dragging one of the sizing-boxes.

You can change the position of the object by dragging it with the mouse, or make precise adjustments using the Properties Window.

You can also change the properties of the object (mass, velocity, etc.) using the Properties Window.
