Working with symbols in a diagram

The Inspiration symbol libraries contain more than 1,200 symbols, including animated symbols and the custom strip symbol which you can customize with text or a simple graphic. You can also create your own symbols using imported graphics and videos. After you add a symbol to a diagram, you can enhance it by changing the colours, adding a fill pattern or shadow, or applying a white background to the text, among other formatting options.

For more information about adding symbols to your diagram using the Symbols palette, see Adding symbols using the Symbols palette.
