  @Boldline Hi I would use "Blend" for this and then refine it with the "Corner Editor" Tool This way you would also have better control

  @Boldline Replicated! Will be fixed. It seems that after adding to some existing object and then starting a new one does not refresh after the paint. Command+R refresh will fix this.

  @vectoradmin sounds good on both - do what is most affordable so VS can keep growing and getting better known

  @Boldline I will try to fix this. It is not a bug, but the consequence of how grids / guidelines are working. The default document grid is inherited by future documents, but when the opacity is changed, the change affects the current canvas only, which is not inherited.

  @vectoradmin Thank you so much. That was a prompt response to the challenge. Yes, linking vs embedding is now working as expected. The size for the document with linked images is now significantly smaller.

  Thank you. It's a subtle way of timing. I hope it works for square selection.

  @vectoradmin I'll take a look at it. That's possible.

  Oh wow. That is helpful. Before I asked here at the forum I checked all the tools / filters / brushes but didn't come up on double clicking the icon. I don't know how Adobe is doing right now, but Macromedia Freehand and Fireworks had a little indicator within the tool icon where you could double click it when there was a "options"-menu available to be opened. maybe a suggestion for the toolbox-face-lift? Once again: thank you a lot for that support. It was such a time saver!!!

  @Subpath I would think as many relevant helpful ideas, suggestions and helpful posts as you want to share would be welcomed. It helps a lot when topics are separate threads because I bookmark relevant answers to questions and often go through the history of threads before asking a question - or I know the question was already asked before and I can go find my answer directly

  @Boldline This looks like some sort of bug. I will have to replicate it.

  [Pattern Brush Preset] Parts of brushes are premanently linked with symbols.

  @encart The problems is that the pattern content uses symbols linking into the document. This is by design for symbols. Maybe when creating Presets maybe these symbols should be detached (copied) and not linked? Meanwhile a workaround. How were those symbols created? There are three ways to create symbols in VS: setting the object name and role (will be linked). creating from an object in the Symbols panel (will be linked). creating in the Presets panel (will not be linked). This one should be used for presets.

  @Boldline Looks like some NodeBB limitation. The settings is to allow up 4MB file size. But that does not work. Maybe link it with dropbox, or some other file sharing site, until I find a solution.

  @vectoradmin , Thank you for your, as always, clear and well described explanation of how "CL" and "software" works.

  @Boldline I think this could be caused by the curve control point being too close to the node.

  @encart @Boldline For me at least the Esc works. But there is also a Preferences -> Changing Options -> Don't Extend with Pencil that can be checked to skip extension even if selected.
