Excuse a dumb question....

I have been looking at some of the wonderful brushes in the Swap Shop. How does one use them please?

I have noted that they are downloadable as a .Xar file, but how do I install them as a brush?

Please excuse my ignorance, I'm still fairly new.

Check this out:

Open the page with the brushes (you can also find some cool and free brushes at The XaraXone Fills & Brushes page.

Select a path or a shape, open the Line Gallery and look in the New Brush Strokes folder and select a brush shape. Click Apply and it's a done deal. You can change the line weight on the Infobar to make the brushes wider or thinner.

You can also edit the brush stroke by selecting the stroked path or shape, selecting the Freehand Tool, then clicking Edit on the Infobar.

For a tutorial on brushes seeWebXealot #25 in the XaraXone.

This get you started?
