For safety??™s sake, get in the habit of
using Shift+s to make incremental saves.That way, even if you make a mistake in an

8. You may have noticed that the object you created with the Pen tool looks kind of
chunky. No worries, we??™ll make it smooth and curvy soon. For now, make sure
that the larger A is in the foreground layer and that the center space of the A is in
a background layer, as shown in Figure 7.10. To place a layer in the background,
simply click beneath the slash on the layer button.
Figure 7.10 Place the larger part of the CurvyA object is in a foreground layer and the center
of the object in a background layer.

press Shift+r to activate the tool and open the Template Drill panel.
The Drill tool allows you to ???drill??? a flat (2D) shape in one layer through one or
more objects or shapes in different layer(s).
