...and a bug, when using the fill and the transparency tool, the arrow showing the direction is a bit late or not showing at all when moveing the mouse... is it only me with this problem?

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> ...and a bug, <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> No... Something new, You get instant feed-back of the fill or transparency as you drag the mouse, the cursor cross hair is always visible, as soon as you stop moving the mouse the arrow appears.

If you don't like that way of displaying things then, while the fill or tranparency tool is active press TAB while dragging the mouse. This will toggle the display back to the X way.

To return back to the X1 way, press TAB again while dragging.

To add to John's suggestion if you will look at the bottom right screen of your work area you will see two icons. One looks like a blue dot with a tiny arrow pointing in to it. The second is a magnet. If you double click on the blue dot that will turn off the "Solid Object Dragging" feature.

One of the neat things about this feature is that when you are working with fills, color or transparency you will see that they move in real time so you can really adjust, say, a fractal fill perfectly every time. The old way is a bit clunky in comparrison once you really ge the hang of the "S.O.D." feature. It allows you to Rotate, skew, resize and moving the fills and transparencies. It's a plus in this area for sure!! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif I'm not too crazy about using the feature to move objects, the heavier they get the slower the responce time gets, so use your tab key to turn off the feature when you don't need it, simple as that!! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
