    Not working for me and I get this strange error message every time I start Xara:

    Some key shortcuts could not be loaded: TemplateSaver

    I guess my update is broken - bah!

    Ah yes, good point. If you have made any changes to your hotkeys and saved them then you'll need to either use one of the Reset options in the hotkeyts dialog, as Handrawn says, or if you want to keep your hotkey setup, just use that dialog to assign whatever key you like to the "Toggle path handles on/off" command.

    I re-set the short cuts and pressing 'h' does the job. I seem to get 1 control point displaying but that is no big deal.
    Many thanks again. This is REALLY handy.
    Huge Regards

    What I would like to see in the future for the shapebuilder and the eraser tool is transparency settings on the info bar rather than having to back and forth to the transparency tool.

    Could be. Not at all distracting so I'm happy. I just need some time to play now :-)
