Could you possibly do a video showing how you use it in Xara?
I find it simply unusable and I'd love to know how you can depend on it. I'm clearly doing something wrong or have completely misunderstood it. But I'd love to see a video of it being used in a real world situation.
If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
Avoiding Manual Labour.
Well, that was instructive
And that's why I would have liked to see its use in a real world example.
(thx for the vids)

It all comes down to convenience and what you are comfortable with. When you click-drag with the shape tool, it simply moves the point you've added but retains it as a line. With the pen tool it changes the point to a smooth join and moves the handle. I've tried using both and I find I work much faster with the pen tool.
Don't do videos or I'd show you. What is frustrating for me is that the edit options info bar is absent in the case of the pen tool. I can understand JET's frustration.

@ Big Frank, If you look at this tutorial from September 2012 on the XaraXone, Gary Bouton's video explains how to use the Pen Tool. It's well worth a look.

Thanks for that link Bob. I had all but forgotten about that tutorial.
