Any other ideas guys?

Thanks to everyone for your help, I think I've got it now! Chris

I have Jing, too (seeing your videos I had to try ) For videos however (for the same "first try first stuck" reason) I still use AutoScreenRecorder (Free edition). I used to have a Camtasia 3 license they were giving out free during Christmas time in 2007 but then had a HW crash and they don't recover those "giveaway" licenses by support. Pity because Camtasia is a cool app but currently I don't need it so badly to pay some $ 300 (or so) for it - true that it would be version 6 already.

I think I might have to accept that I haven't got the experience yet. Could I ask anyone to have a go? Thanks for your help Chris

Okay, I am 6 pages deep into this project in LayOut, and the font (reset) issue is frustrating me, now do I save this as a template too? And how do I deal with different fonts, line weights, fill types as they emerge during the creation of the drawings process, save all of that as a template too? aloha red

That's good advice, thanks. I'm glad you like the drawing, it's taken a while! Cheers Chris
