Resize graphic objects

You can resize a graphic object in the edit mode. After selecting a graphic object, it is outlined by a rectangle with squares. Using the squares you can arbitrarily resize the graphic object. Position of the squares depends on the graphic object type. For example: in a rectangle, the squares are placed in the corners and sides of the rectangle. Selecting a multiline, the squares are placed in the beginning and end points and in the breaking points.
