[softwarelist] Re: Underlines in OvPro

Talking of lines, I've discovered how to draw 'non-existant' vertical
ones which render onscreen until something passes over them (F12,
RETURN restores them), but can't be selected and don't print:  Draw a
very-nearly vertical line, then use 'Modify line' to change its width
to 0.  Weird!

Two standard points, you can use select all, or draw out a selection box (control+shift+select drag) that should select anything.

Lines with thickness "Thin" render at one pixel width, visible on screen, invisible on good printers. In serious publishing, no line should be set to "Thin".

There are some oddities with lines which come from maths, zero times something is always zero, if you create a vertical line you'll never be able to get it to any other angle by dragging it selection handles.
