Shiny Text Mini Tutorial

why do you have to ungroup text twice when converted to editable shape?

A text story contains a number of lines and each line contains a number of characters. When converted to editable shapes it keeps this structure, becoming a group for the story containing a group for each line and each of these contains the shapes for the characters. The first ungroup removes the story group, if you do it to a story with more than one line you will see the status line change from 1 group to <n> groups selected. The second ungroup does an ungroup of all the selected line group objects.

Thanks a lot Gerry, it's always nice to know the reason why you have to perform a certain action than just do it with no idea why. Now I know, thank you.
