Sorry, I don't understand. I thought that you couldn't do any editing of any kind on the original layer? I'm sure the wiki said it had to be converted to a data layer first. My intention was to simply remove the bit that refers to my garden path, so that the recording started at the road-side. I was then going to upload the trace, then do the download and edit bit. Anne
