        If you want to erase them, use the Eraser tool. I bet you don't really want that, though. Do you?

        If I were working with that, I wouldn't want to erase them. I would want to soften them. The Help files are really good on that topic. In fact it is amazing what you can find in the Help files.

            Then EEbyRailsToLattice OR EEbyByRails followed by LatticeMaker etc are much more appropriate - read the guidance.

                  I think what most people have been trying to politely say in most of your threads is, If you try learning the basics first you will do so much better.

                  Trying to use a plug in before you understand how to do something manually will only slow you down in the future.
