Thanks a lot for this - it's absolutely brilliant. Up till now, I've just been clicking about and hoping for the best, but understanding what's going on really helps!

That was really useful. It will probably take a bit of practice to get used to using these tools to optimum effect, but its great to now have a knowledge of what they actually do. Also I found your writing really easy to follow. So thanks. :)
