Manga Studio pain

Grr, there's little worse in life than non intuitive software, except non intuitive software, and a user guide,that seems to reference an alternative version..
I'm almost punching the screen here, I am determined to make Manga studio bend to my will, as I've seen the incredible things it can do.. but blinkin' flip it's awkward.
Panels, and panel layers... driving me insane.. I guess i should look on the you tubes, there's bound to be a hundred tutorials...
