# Drawing a Line

Use the Line object tool to draw a single straight line or a multi-line object (a series of lines joined end-to-end).

To draw a line or a series of lines:

1. In the Graphics menu, click Add.
2. Select the Line tool in the Object Tools window.

   The Create Multiple Lines button appears.

3. Click Create Multiple Lines.
4. To draw multiple lines, move to the canvas and click to place the start point of the first line. Click again to draw the end point. Continue clicking to draw more lines.
5. To end a multiple line object, click Create Multiple Lines.
6. To draw single lines, move to the canvas and click, drag, and release.

   Paint draws the line as you drag.
