Art brushes on closed shapes
Hi everyone,
The latest patch fixes some problems with the way art brushes join together when they are applied to closed shapes. The joins are now much neater and this allows you to use art brushes as borders.
Here are some examples:

Cool fix.
Speaking of which, and maybe I missed it, but is there a summary of what was fixed in the latest patch?

@Phil,
That is superb! Thanks.
@Gary,
You're welcome. I was looking for more details, but that was all that I could find. I really like the improvement on closed shapes.
Re: Art brushes on closed shapes
I am very satisfied with Xara Designer Pro X11, it is fast and stable.
Last year had a lot of issues with version X10 when it came out, on the level that even for long I used rather X9. But the version X11 from the beginning worked greatly, plus after these fixes it is so just even better

Here is a quick tip when creating brushes to be used as borders. There may be times when you want to be able to have the brush render on the outside of the shape. All you have to do is flip it either horizontally or vertically it doesnt matter as both work the same :)
