Hi Mark – thanks for getting back.

Actually we (that is to say my partner) worked it out. I’d been pasting the new group into a folder nested inside another group for that section of the project. As a result the size settings of the drop zones and the masked images (using the rectangle technique shown by Kevin McAuliffe – thank you!) were being altered by settings in that group.

I’ve now found that if I create a group outside any other groups in the project then the objects in the new group copy across with the parameters set on the other iMac.

So although I don’t really understand why that happens we can now make the project work across the 2 iMacs – so we may meet this crazy deadline after all 😉

Thanks for your great tutorials and tips – I really enjoy them and have learnt a lot – with still a lot to learn obviously!!
