Hi. I would like to request that the developers of this program make it easier to create rounded corners on rectangles. I follow the instructions in the tutorial but it's not easy to grab the x. For me I get it to work one out of every ten tries. The other times the shape disappears and then numbers appear and when I release the mouse half the shape has disappeared. How about making a rounded rectangle one of the options under Objects->shapes or put one on the toolbox? Thanks for your time.

Yep...that was requested for improvement a long time ago...not shure if it is in the newer versions...if anyone can comment on that and if it is,then you could solve it by updating.

If not you might try a "online rounded corner"
utility...dont remember where these are..a Google search will get you there in no time.
I have used these as an alternative and most work pretty good.

If you are having problems grabbing the handles to make the curves, try zooming the page to make them larger.

I've had problems myself, not like the one's described above, just grabbing the handles, so I'll try zooming in as larryd suggested.

A rounded rectangle in the shapes tool would be OK, but I like the freedom of the vertice editor to allow for creativity.
