Creating A Box

I'd like to create a box around some sections of track, but not sure how to accomplish this.

If it's somewhere in the manual, please point me to it. Otherwise, here's more specifics:

When I drag a Lionel O-Guage track set to the layout, I get several pieces. I'd like to place a box around all the parts in that set. I tried different attempts, but either ended up with a box that had circles (points?) in each corner. Or ended up with a colored fill that blocked the individual track pieces.

Help!

And thanks,

Paul

It depends on the purpose of the box.

If it's just a rectangle background, use the box with the circles. These circles are control points. In the 'Settings' tab, you can set them to a smaller size. If you export the plan to a picture, or print it, these circles don't show.
