How cool....I may just order this too. Still working on another Inkscape book covering the basics, but this one looks quite interesting. Thank you.

That is VERY fun..I had done this by mistake once and did not remember how to do it again. Not sure if you mentioned that the paint brush at the top sets the controls back to default zeros.

Thanks for the reminder about this...it is a quick way to make some cool designs.

No, but I will include that in my blog post, I hadn't even noticed it up there, too busy playing! But I had noticed that when I created a new star it saved the previous design so that's a quick way to reset your star shape. This is the first time I had really used it so I'm like a kid in a candy store :lol: ...thanks for the tip! :D
