The shapes appear to be upside-down in pfb files. This makes it confusing when we edit them.

Does anyone know? Short of turning the monitor on its head, does anyone know of a handy way to edit these without getting all confused?

I think Lee is a Vampire so he probably hangs from the ceiling when coding.

Yes. Great app but I think it's still upside-down.

The text file reads from top down, and the ebe builds from the ground up. I don't see any reason why you couldn't write them in reverse order, though. Shouldn't make any difference, though I haven't the time to test it right now. The rows are declared in the file.

OK. Thanks. I suppose once I make a template it should be easy.
