    it would be helpful if there was a downloadable text to go along with the video. There was no obvious way to replay a certain segment of the video. It also would be helpful if the mouse would show where it was picking up the tool.

      Cheryl,

      You should be able to pause the video with the controls at the bottom of the playing video. There is also a time line or progress bar that you can move backwards to replay segments of the video. If you are having trouble seeing these controls please try using the link below the video graphic that reads:

      Problems viewing this video? Try opening it in a new window.

    Loved it, I think cheryl hit it right on the nose. Full screen helped to see the layers and how he was using it.

    Also, you can stop a video by clicking once on the illustration. Just click twice to restart it..saves lots of time and let’s you easily work along side the video (in Windows 7.)

    Thanks for another excellent video, Dave.

    I could watch the movie when I opened it in a new window, but when I clicked on’ Download Movie’ nothing happened. I’ve downloaded other videos with no problems – is there a reason for this?
    I’m using a Mac, would that be the problem?

    Had problems watching this video. Seems the audio didn’t keep up with the video. It would pause for extend periods and then start again but certIn parts of it I never could see. Too bad beacause what I did get was really good.

      Sherry,

      I just went and rechecked this video on a Mac and PC in the office, and I’m not seeing any syncing problems.

      Try downloading the video to your computer (by clicking on the “Download this movie” link) and see if that fixes the problem. Hopefully it was just a connection issue.

    I’ve watched a bunch of the videos now and love them all. Dave, you have such a great sense of humour and the tuts are so easy to follow. I love it! I thought your scroll ending on this vid was a real hoot! Thanks for the wonderful video tuts! :-)

    Hi Dave & co.
    This video is appalling, an unplanned, condesenting mish-mash of liller tips. I rather watch Youtube!

    Sorry Mike Hamerton
