I used overlay redux, but that's terribly slow after adding mor then 5 or 6 points. any other great way to do this? ;> i tried draw object too, but that does not have semi-transparent ink effect. :\ thanks for your help Borgi Edited by the Author. :C

This way you could use semi-transparent effects as well.
