Thanks David, I am enjoying your Inkscape tips. Have been bookmarking them for future reference as I am slowing starting to use it more over my Corel.

Thanks Plasmanewbie! A few years back Julie got me onto CorelDraw after I saw a demo of her using the B-Spline tool for manual tracing. It works much better for me than the Inkscape Bezier draw tool for certain projects. I have never really become proficient with CorelDraw, and in particular the trim tool has really frustrated me. It never works as expected for me, and often times won't even work at all.

In any case, I do like Inkscape for many things I might do - and it is great fun to use.

David
