I asked the following question to Corel directly, being totally blanked
by the manual or "Help", and got the reply that they would be happy to
answer any questions not intelligibly covered by "Help" for $25 a pop
-- anyway, let me apologize in advance for posting the question here
since a cursory reading of some of the comments suggest that highly
technical issues are the norm -- but I would appreciate the spoon feed
-- what "Help" does say about drawing ellipses is that the "ellipse"
button should be clicked -- I have a "circle" button and a "square"
button on my tool options palette, but no "ellipse" button -- does
anyone know where they hide it? Many thanks
