How do I customize shapes, lines, etc in Lookout?

In other HMI software packages, I am able to create shapes/lines, and fill with various colors and gradients. Does Lookout 6.1 have the same capability?  I don't see any drawing toolbars etc to create custom shapes/lines.
 
I'm interfacing to a PLC (DL405) and monitoring and controlling the environment inside a building.   I'd like to draw a layout of the building and place temperature, humidity  readings throughout the building. Also the ability to enter environment  set points. I cannot find any drawings tools in this HMI package....   How do I draw shapes, lines, etc.... a custom graphic interface.....

You will have to either make your own graphics in MS Paint, Adobe Illustrator etc and import the new graphics into lookout.

Lookout doesn't have such drawing tools.
But you import graphics into Lookout by Image Navigator. See Lookout Developer's Manual, Chapter 6, Graphics.
