Attachment 93497
Seeing as my experiments at attempting glass like transparency effects was a success I thought I'd go a bit further. I use the MATTERHORN Font with cyan 3D extrusion and perspective with a bit of transparency (Just ignore the attachment).
By the way, I'm not giving up on Xara, I want to extend my range a bit by including a bit of experience with other similar packages.
A toast to the memory of Bill taylor, a talented guy and part of a talented team.
This is interesting I can't figure out how to do the three dimensional stuff.
Well strictly speaking it’s an extrusion with a rotate and tumble feature. Saying that, quite remarkable effects can be obtained with a little experimentation and practice. There is a 3D icon to the left of your screen, select it and at the top of your screen there is a 3D activation button, click that and the extrude, rotate, tumble, bevels, light direction and lighting colours are all open to you.
Hope this makes sense to you and is of some help...
