Oh, that's good news. Do you know the release date for 1.6? As for the eye dropper tool: What I would like is a tool that grabs whatever color you hover over, with one click, Photoshop style. ADs process seems incredibly counter-intuivite in comparison. Also: IMO that tool belongs into the regular toolbox, with an easy keyboard shortcut to call it up. Am I wrong?

So far, I've only found one way to hide objects in AD: locate them in the layers palette, and uncheck the mark next to them, with the mouse. With AD's extremely crowded layer palette (and only a non-shortcut way to locate objects in the palette, via menu), this is cumbersome and time consuming. In Illustrator, any active object can be hidden and locked with command-3 or command-2 (plus option-command for the reverse action). This is my number one hinderance for a quick work flow in Designer right now. Second big complaint, which I'm sure you guys are working on: Eye dropper tool. I mean ... come on! Thanks, jlab
