You can use the drawing tool to simply draw in Word. 1. Insert shape: Through the "Shape" function in the "Insert" menu, you can draw figures such as lines, rectangles, circles, etc., and adjust the outline color, fill color and other details. Press and hold the Shift key to maintain the scale drawing. 2. Use the Drawing tool: On the touch screen device, select the thickness and color of the pen through the Drawing tab to achieve handwriting or graffiti effects. The mouse can also be used to draw simple lines without touch devices. 3. Text box picture: After inserting the text box, you can add text and pictures to it to achieve mixed arrangement of pictures and texts. You can also use the right-click "Add Text" to achieve synchronous movement of text and graphics. This function is suitable for daily scenarios such as reporting, teaching, homework, meeting minutes, etc.

Open Word to draw? It sounds a bit strange, but it is actually quite practical. For example, draw a diagram casually when making a report, or add some illustrations to your child's homework. The drawing tools in Word are actually enough.

Insert shape: the most basic and most commonly used

Word's "Insert" menu has a "Shape" function, which contains various graphics such as lines, rectangles, circles, arrows, flow charts, etc. After clicking in, just drag the mouse in the document and you can draw it.
You can draw a circle and add some text to a simple annotation; or use lines to connect several figures to make a simple flow chart. After drawing, right-click the figure and can also adjust the outline color, fill color, shadow and other details.
Tips: Hold down the Shift key and then draw the figure to maintain the proportion, such as drawing a perfect circle or an equilateral triangle.

Use the Drawing tool: Handwritten or Graffiti

If you are using a touch screen device (such as Surface or iPad Word App), you can use the Drawing tool directly. Click the Drawing tab, select the thickness and color of the pen, and you can write or draw on the screen with your stylus or fingers.
Even without a touch device, you can draw simple lines with your mouse. Although the effect is not as smooth as handwriting, it is still OK to draw an arrow or circle the key points.
Several practical scenarios:

• Circle key content on handouts
• Draw cartoon patterns for children when doing homework
• Make meeting minutes and draw a chart

Text box pictures = richer picture and text mixing

Sometimes you want to add some text descriptions based on the drawing, and you can use the "Insert Text Box" function. After drawing a text box, you can not only type but also insert pictures.
For example, you can draw a text box in the shape of a cloud, put a small icon inside, and write some instructions next to it, and the visual effect will be much better than plain text.
If you have already drawn a graphic and want to add text inside, you can also right-click the graphic and select "Add Text", so that the text will move along with the graphic.

Basically that's it. Although Word's drawing function is not as good as professional software, it is enough for daily use. The key is to use it easily without having to open other programs.
