Tip of the day

I will try to fill this thread with a tip/trick per day, that we can gather later.

Sometimes it will be something you already knew about, sometimes not. Some may even be hidden tricks, not explained in the manual. I will also try to delete obsolete tricks when new versions of FL will be available, so that every trick is useful in the current version.

This thread will be locked, if you want to comment, just create new posts.
