It seemed to me that the Tiger/Line data which i associated with one part should be associated with the rest, too. > You can just make two ways that connect. OK. I select the part with all the Tiger/Line data, and then ctrl +click on the part I want to join to it. That brings up a dialog about "Settings..." and "About Adobe Flash Player 10..." Poking a bit more, I found that the correct combination on a Mac/OSX appears to be command+click. I have no idea why the key combo that works on other platforms fails, and I never tried it before because usually, "command + anything" is only used for Mac-specific things. I'm used to using ctrl or option with X-11 apps, for example. Anyhow, all fixed now.
