Turned out very well Lula - all your Gimping is of a very high standard. :clap :clap


If the first attempt doesn't work as well as you hoped, when patterned, it is worth repeating the plug-in one ot two times to see if things can be improved.

Thank you Pat Level_0 and Lula.

Pat:
Of course the real reason for writing the plug-in was to use it for Custom Fonting purposes (as if you hadn't guessed).
