Hi. Sorry if I'm a complete idiot, but this is the place Smith Micro told me to post my newbie questions. I am stuck at the tutorial (that comes with the program) page 74. I have made the arm-like strokes on top of each other and resized one, but then the tutorial says:

Now you can use the variable line width tool to adjust

the width of both strokes at the same time, or make other

transformations with the Transform Points tool to reshape or

animate both curves at the same time

Well, no I can not. When I try to transform or reshape, I only change one of the strokes ...
Please help me, someone..

You're using the same set of points to create two shapes, so it can get tricky selecting the correct shape. Naming the shapes as you go along can help.
