Ah, I see. >> May be if original scan will be included, it can help. Probably - it's hard to know why it's like that otherwise. Incidentally why is the "load without images" menu option called "Open XP"? It's not at all self-documenting, and even having looked up the function in the manual, the name isn't obvious to me. My best guess is it's short for "Open eXcluding Pictures". I realise you want to avoid turning a menu entry into an essay, but something like "Open without pictures" or "Open (no pics)" would still be reasonably short while making the function obvious. >>> >That would seem to make is much harder to >>> >draw unless there's some "view rotated" option, which I can't see to >>> >find. > >> >> There is no such an option.

Than you can draw it natural way. Sure. I only went looking for it because I didn't think someone would have drawn the elevation sideways! Cheers, Olly
