Drawing in Layout XL

progster

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to prevent Layout XL to execute drawing commands immediately after pressing key? For example, when i press P to draw path, it start to create path from the point where my cursor is. Same for rectangle etc.

Best regards,
Ivan.

    Hi,

    the option you are looking for to disable is called "Infix".  Can be found in the  CIW - Options - User Preferences.

    Kind regards,

    Marc
