- If not and I have to do it manually, then I will relate my other problem
right now. I was going to do this manually by drawing a rectangle then simply copy/paste the necessary items into my box to manually create the enlarged area. But for some reason whenever, I try to draw rectangle I get nothing but a box of dashed lines that disappears as soon as I don't click on it. Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?
Sometimes I get this behaviour when I have set the fill color to the same color as the canvas (white by default). All you have to do is change the color of the box after you draw it (before clicking anywhere else on the canvas). A usefull tool for this situation is the outline mode (menu View->Display Mode->Outline or Ctrl+[keypad 5]), in outline mode you could see any object even if it doesn't have a fill or outline color. Hope it helps.
