Thanks Spikey and Omar Domenech, I appreciate you getting back to me so quickly. I’ll look over the lesson tomorrow, and see if I can correct my mistake— I have been holding”ALT”, but maybe there was a step I missed. I’ll do as you say, review the material, and not get hung-up on the details. I was just afraid that if I didn’t master this, I wouldn’t be able to render anything in blender- good to know that at least with this particular tool, that is not the case. Thanks again for all your help.
