selected	be deselected.

You can tell an object is selected when a bounding box, which is a gray rectangle that encloses the object, appears on the screen. The bounding box has small squares, called selection markers, at the corners and midpoints of the sides.

Note: Depending on the resolution of your machine and the features it contains, the sides of the bounding box may be dim or may not be visible at all. But the selection markers will always display to indicate that an object has been selected.

If you select more than one object, the bounding box expands to enclose all the objects. See Figure 4-3 on page 4-8 for an example that shows a bounding box.

Hint! The ‘click’ you hear when you touch the screen indicates only that you have touched the screen with enough force for the system to recognize the touch. The click does not necessarily indicate that you have successfully selected an object on the screen.

Selecting a layered object

When you have multiple layered objects on a label, it can be difficult to see and select the object of your choice. In some cases, you may be able to move the objects aside temporarily to find the object you want, but this alternative is not always practical on a crowded display screen.
