Hi there,
These topics are explained much better in the User's Guide, so it is kind of pointless to retype all here.
The User's Guide is a PDF file, that includes an amazing feature called "Search" (the icon is a magnifier)=> so if you search, for example, "island" => the search feature will point page 130 and the topic "To add an island". Easy, right? :-)
Punch, as any program, has a learning curve. The best way to learn the program, IMO, is practice + practice + practice => Read and follow the manual (this is very important), see the videos => try to create elements not related with your project, so you will become familiar with the commands and how to develop the different components.
If you are interested, I have several training e-books, one of them is free. See links below.
