Default draw shapes

You can use the Freeform tool and draw the shape you want. Then you can edit
the points you've drawn in order to tweak the shape if necessary. Depending
on the shape you're after it can be painstaking but it can be done.



But I follow what you want, if the shapes are filled then I'd just draw a
square and a circle, and then overlap the two. The set the border color to
transparent for both.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
