Hi Brent, Thanks for the compliment on the course. I'm slowly coming out of my post class hibernation after nine days of instruction. I see that others on the forum had the answers for you. The method that I demonstrated was to select the bit map as a background image and then turn on See Background in the Shaper. Of course, as mentioned here, you can't zoom or pan your view without messing things up. Another possibility would be to bring the Corel generated file into the Shaper, Freeze it, and then trace over it. The advantage here is that you can zoom and pan all you want. If you run out of vertices you can set the SHAPE-MAX setting in the 3DS.SET file to a higher number. Steven
