Hi Jean Ok on all your comments. I shall try and ensure that I comment 3.3/3.4 differences as separate entries in future. I am in Denmark for a few weeks, this time on holiday. We are in a camping ground with only quite a slow internet (mobile broadband) connection. I noted this morning a few additional changes which seem to be necessary in Chapter 3 Working with objects. These relate to the behaviour of classic Draw objects and Basic Shapes when applying a slant/shear. I will upload this document, or at least try to, tomorrow. I am working on Ch7 3D objects at present. Good job I brought two laptops on holidays with me :=)
