Thanks. It was easy to install your scripts.

Do Fazek's scripts work in the Windows version?

If they do, how do I install them?

Vern, You were right. Though the outline looked closed, it wasn't. I discovered that by dragging each point and seeing if the shape followed it. One other question: I created the outline using my Wacom tablet, and its border is pretty thick (too much pen pressure). After I converted it to a shape I ...
