You don't have to select the selection tool then click on the background then reselect the pen tool to start a new line. Just hit shift+control+a to deselect everything and you can immediately begin drawing a new line.

Hi there. I am seeing less videos in your Advanced Illustrator playlist. I mean to say 1/53, than 5/53. Is it corrent or am I missing something?

This is very helpful! Thank you for taking the time to explain all this so clearly, and for sharing it free here. Question: do you have any idea why my spacebar locks everything rather than making the shape locked while I move the anchor point? When I hit the spacebar everything freezes. God bless :)
