[Gloria T. W. <glo...@be...>]

Bill,
Is there a way to change the line width(as well as the width of other  
features, such as darken or lighten) in order to draw things in  
perspective (like telephone poles or fence posts going away from you)?
I don't see a way to "buy" a copy of the program; I only see the free  
download.
Can you help please?
It truly is amazing, what you've done with this "children's" program!  
Can't wait to teach it to my grandchildren, but first I need to learn  
it myself...
Thanks,
Gloria
