Dan,
Your MacPaint feature does work as advertized, but did you know that you can
use that 'feature' to some advantage? With some clever use of the lasso you
can make a shape 'move'. Try the following:

1. Draw any shape or just use the box.
2. Fill the shape (with the paintcan) with the close dots. The big or small
uneven dots also work well.
3. Lasso the shape.
4. Invert.
5. Deselect.
6. Lasso the shape.
7. Invert again.
8. Deselect.
9. Lasso again (for the last time).

All neat stuff. You can obviously do a lot of things with MacPaint. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: This works on my 128k Mac, using MacPaint 1.4. I have no idea if
it will also work with MacPaint 1.3
