Comments
Is it possible to break the link and assign the internal line(s) to another pattern?
Figured :) it's simple copy and paste. I was taking it too seriously. :)
Can you change the color of the lines?
Why are the lines so thick on the updated ver 6.2. This is terrible. Pls tell me there is a way to change it back.
