Hi -
Can anyone describe quickly how to accomplish the following:
1. I want to make a rounded rectangle with three sections and each will have a
separate fill type. I tried making a rounded rect. with only a stroke and then
drawing 2 lines horizontally to segment it. The problem is that when I use the
paint bucket, it's filling the whole rounded rectangle area. Do I need to merge
the line segments? Cut them up, etc? Here is a website with a couple of
examples that look like what I'm trying to
accomplish:http://www.splunk.com/article/2169

2. Related but separate issue is making a selection without accidentally
selecting things on another layer. It seems if I click, or click-drag, I keep
on switching the layer I'm trying to work in.

Any thoughts? Thanks!
