Trace Lessons: Gaining Familiarity | |
|---|---|
The following lessons will help gain familiarity as you walk through the different functions of Trace. |  |
It is suggested that as you work, save the design as a Path. This will allow you to save the design as you go without being required to trace the design. If you are interrupted, you can save the design and reload the Path file into Trace at a later time and continue on with the lesson. Many of these lessons start with objects created in Design. See the Design Editor for more information on placing and aligning objects, etc. |  |
