Hmmm, I’ve been frustrated with this silly problem for a while but I can’t work out how to fix it, other than saving the work then opening up again.
When I use one of the ‘selection’ tools, eg. lasso tool, once I’ve finished with what I’m doing, how do I UNselect it so I can just go on doing other things. I’m not sure if this question is clear, but I’m hoping someone understands. See, I told you it was a silly question! hehe :))

God, I knew it would be easy, I just couldn’t work it out! I’d tried every combination of Shit, Ctrl and Alt! Thanks heaps for that, picketty – much appreciated :))

Thanks, Mariana! :))

Hi Karen – I do sometimes forget about it, though I’ve found it slows my laptop down quite a bit. I don’t know why, but it’s a real pain. I really must remember it’s there, though!. Many thanks for the reminder :))

Many thanks, Alison – I’ve just noticed that! You guys rock :)))
