Inserting theme objects

Once a theme has been applied to a document, you can easily insert most types of theme objects into the document using the Theme Object submenu of the Insert menu. On the Insert menu, click Theme Object in the Multimedia section, and select the desired theme object from the submenu.

In most themes, objects are ordinary, bitmapped images, and you can modify them in the same ways as other bitmapped images. (See the “Images” section for more information.) However, objects in vector-based themes (the themes in the Vector category) use Smart ClipArt images. As with other Smart ClipArt images, you can edit these objects using the Smart ClipArt Editor. (Double-click the object to edit it.)

If you insert a Banner theme object, it will initially have the text “Banner text” on it. To change the text, double-click the banner and enter the desired text.
