I have to say that the differences between SBuilder and SBuilderX are like night and day. After reading that. . .I'm no closer. Problem is I have to forget everything I learned in SBuilderX in order to work with SBuilder. Talking about linedraws and layers. . .in SBX I simply drew an exclude, compile to a bgl and then drew a new coastline, compile to a bgl and I was done in 10 minutes. I've been trying to comprehend what it will take in FS9 and it's been over a week and I'm no closer. Quickly losing interest in doing anything in SBuilder.
