  .SH "GRAPHICAL OBJECTS"
! The objects in
! .I xfig
! are divided into
! .B "primitive objects"
! and
! .BR "compound objects" .
! The primitive objects are:
! .IR ARC ,
! .IR CIRCLE ,
! .IR "CLOSED SPLINE" ,
! .IR ELLIPSE ,
! .IR POLYLINE ,
! .IR POLYGON ,
! .IR "ENCAPSULATED POSTSCRIPT" ,
! .IR BOX ,
! .IR ARC-BOX ,
! .IR SPLINE ,
! and
! .IR TEXT .
  .PP
  A primitive object can be moved, rotated, flipped vertically or horizontally,
  scaled, copied, aligned within a compound object or erased.
! The
! .I TEXT
! primitive may not be flipped.
  The attributes of any primitive object can be edited using a popup
  panel (discussed below), so you can, for instance, set the position
  of an object manually.
  .PP
! A compound object is composed of primitive objects.
! The primitive objects
! that constitute a compound can not be individually modified,
! but they can be manipulated as an entity;
! a compound can be moved, rotated, flipped
! vertically or horizontally, scaled, copied or erased.
! A compound that contains any boxes or arc-boxes
! may only be rotated by 90 degrees.
  .PP
! Objects may overlap other objects according to their ``depth''.
! Objects with larger depth number are obscured by objects with smaller depth.
  .PP
! .I Regular
! polygons may be created using a special drawing mode, but a
! general
! .I POLYGON
! is created as a result, which may then be modified, i.e.
  the individual vertices may be moved if desired.
  .SH "DISPLAY WINDOWS"
! Ten regions comprise the display area of
! .IR xfig :
! the command region, top ruler, side ruler, drawing mode region,
  editing mode region, filename region, message region,
  mouse function indicator region and canvas region,
  and indicator region with buttons to set and show current line thickness,
