Which is great, by the way. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] I've spent 8-10 hours, and have studied about 6 "chapters".

I was doing fills, and was trying to figure out how to change the two fill colors, before I got to that part in the tutorial, and I figured out something that isn't in Xara Help, the Shortcut Word docs, or the tutorial.

To toggle through the Start, Middle(Ramp), & End colors, just hit Tab, then you can click a color on the Color Line. No need to select a fill handle or drag & drop on the fill line. This seems much quicker, to keep one finger on the Tab button, and one on the mouse to click colors.

Thought I'd tell everyone of my inadvertent discovery. I am a great believer in shortcuts using the keyboard.

I love this manual, and am learning so much! I hope I remember half of what I am learning. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]
