Hi Footleg, you don't show using right click with mouse when drawing scraps. It is much faster way. Drawing line - one may not draw beziers directly. It is possible to draw only points which are not "smooth" and then use "Convert to curve" feature from "Edit line" menu. There are only small correction necessary. The problem with transparency is that all viewers using Apple library and several others (Sumatra) ignore group transparency which is in definition of PDF. So it is bug. (According to Martin Budaj). m.s. On Mar 15, 2016, at 03:46 PM, Footleg <drfootleg@gmail.com> wrote: Hot off the press, I have published another update to my Therion Tutorial. Since the last revision in November 2015 I have simplified the recommendations on larger project data structures (I realised my own projects were not following my advice I had written!), and added a new lesson on defining layouts. As always, feedback and comments are welcomed. But don't be disheartened if I have not yet incorporated suggestions made already into this latest revision. I just wanted to get this initial layouts chapter out there as several people asked for it. I'll take the time to read all the feedback I've received already and merge it into the tutorial in time.
