The dialog for the Advanced Rounded Rectangle has me confused.
Where did you find this function? I only see "Select > Rounded
Rectangle" menu items and it surely doesn't have hor/vert radius
What data am I supposed to enter
Pixels would be most likely choice.
and what is a horizontal or vertical radius ?
If your curiosity brought you a little further ;-), you'd play with
options and see that it is a distance of points, from which each
corner is rounded, from original corners. E.g. if you want a
rectangular that is almost like an ellipse, you define a large
horizontal radius and small vertical radius, so that rounding
stretches a lot horizontally and very little vertically.

for examples.
