Thank you Doreen and Shirley Ann. Now downloaded and installed and I hate it! Had a wasted afternoon trying to write a load of text with a sketch pen, now I'll have to recreate it in V.3 if I'm to produce it this side of Christmas. I downloaded V.4 last May under a different user name so that I could fathom it out when I had time without messing up V.3 but I never got around to it. Today I decided to try to get to grips with it but I'm finding it a very different ball game. I see there's a Sketch option in the Send panel but none of it makes sense to me. When I try to select the tool only blades are offered and as for scaling - forget it! I've looked at the Tutorials and the Manual but couldn't find anything relevant, maybe I'm just too tired and will have to try again another day but suspect that I'm going to be using V.3 for a long time to come. Woe is me!

Shirley, just to say we all felt like that when they changed to V4! It took me a while to download it because so many people were having problems with it! It is always worth looking to see if there are any arrows that give you drop down options, for instance the sketch pen - see the snip I've added to this post - you go to "send" to cut in V4, and you use the drop down arrow on the action line to select sketch and the tool line drop down arrow to get to sketch pen. If you still have V4 installed it is worth having a play with it to get used to the changes. There are some really good improvements, you just need some time. If you have something urgent to cut then it is obviously best to use the version that you know and trust, but don't give up on the new version without having a go. There will always be someone on here that will assist, and Brian is often about and will give advice - we are so lucky to have good support.
