Yes, I did it then accidentally deleted it. You must have seen it during the window of time between save and delete.

A neat idea, the enjoyment of which is rather negated by all the extremely tedious filling in of masses of blank squares.

Yes Leigh, I agree. It was tedious to make as well. They should make an mass fill for blank squares like the paint bucket when creating puzzles.

Brian, I think if you mess around with the buttons when creating a puzzle, you will find the fill feature. All you need is an outline to fill.
#7: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Dec 5, 2009
Is that a new feature? I have never seen that when creating puzzles.
#8: Teresa K (fasstar) on Dec 5, 2009
Yeah, it is kind of new, along with an undo button and redo button. Check it out. Make us a puzzle. :-)

Multiple solutions puzzles aren't PBN puzzles.

Why guessing?
#11: Gator (gator) on Jan 14, 2019
Multiple solution puzzles are inherently guessing as there are multiple ways to fill in the cells to satisfy the clues, and you have to guess the correct one.

Found to require some guessing by gator.

Oh I didn't get the multiple solutions notice.

So what's the answer to the puzzle within the puzzle?

A heart!
