OK, I have graduated to Lesson 1 in the book "Pieced Drawing" for EQ7. Got through most of the lesson but am stuck at step 15 where I am supposed to select the block I have just created it and clone it. Directions have me click on the pick tool, "point the cursor at an area just above the left corner of the block", click and drag. I have done this more than once, and the most I can get it to do is select the upper lefthand piece of the block. It wants me to select the whole block.
I Googled and found I could do "Edit", "Select All" to select the entire block. Worked great. I was able to select the whole block, rotate it, and plunk a copy into the right side of the block. The next time I tried that, it selected the entire upper half of the block (both pieces I had already done).
Anyway, I guess my question is, how the heck do I use the pick tool to select the portion I need? It......just.....won't.....do......it. This is why I get so frustrated with the printed lessons. If I could find a video that showed how to do this, I could easily see what it is I am doing wrong. Already watched one video that showed lots of other things about PatchDraw, but not how to do this selection with the pick tool.
Can someone enlighten me?
