3D Button using the Extrude Tool
Hi All.
This is pretty easy to do, even if you are relatively new to Xara.
Well, if I can do it, anyone can!
Basically:
Draw a circle and give it a circular fill
Draw a few reflections
Group it all together
Use the 'Extrude Tool'
Then, it's almost 'hey presto' !!!
Try using different Bevel types and different light settings and angles to design your own.
So, let's see your examples - let's see what you can come up with?!
