Creating vector shapes

We are going to use vector shapes to create the body of the GIZMO interface.

1. Select the Rounded Rectangle tool
   
   
2. Draw a rounded rectangle of any size on the page.
   We will use the Properties Inspector to do the rest.
   
   
3. Make sure the rectangle is selected. Click it once if it is not.
   
4. Set the following properties in the Properties Inspector:
   
   W: 498
   H: 370
   X: (centre it on the page manually)
   Y: 10
   Fill: Solid, any colour
   Rectangle Roundness: 10
   
   To create the shape of the bottom of the GIZMO we are going to draw an elipse and then join it with the rectangle we've already created.
   
5. Select the Elipse tool
   
   
6. Draw an ellipse on the page.
   Simlar to the one below
   
   
7. Set it's size to:
   W: 556
   H: 100
