Can Rev Draw a Line?

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Hi Joe,

One other thought, taking into consideration that you may just want  
"drawings" of some sort in your application; Even a grid possibly? Use  
a drawing program - there are many you could use; then copy and paste  
the "drawings" into your Rev Stacks. Just a thought, but it would work  
and be very easily done.
