Hi
I would like an option (one click away from the main screen) to save the current page as the default. For instance I have a page with a background set of lines from an image, a slightly shrunk grid, snap to grid on and grid masked, I would like to be able to 'save as default' and have every new page come up the same. I know I can save it as a flp page and pull it out of resource library, but that is a pain when you are in front of a class, the library takes up so much real estate, flipping in and out of several options is not exactly riveting for a less than attentive class.

You might be able to do what you want another way - albeit slightly different. Expand the user definable section of your AS2 toolbar. If you set up your page and then select all the objects on it and drag them onto the AS2 toolbar, it will create a shortcut button which you can click when you are on a blank page and all the objects should get copied onto the blank page. i.e. Just one click from the AS2 toolbar. I've not tried this exactly as you want but might be worth experimenting.

Hi
The things I want are not selectable nor draggable, I want a background, grid and also the attributes; such as snap to grid and grid masked. I would like to be able to set these up on a page and then use it as the default page, so that every new page was like it.
