  1. Re: I'd like to commission someone for creating a vector file for me. How ?

    OK, I'm resurrecting this thread since I have obtained something I'm pleased with. I contacted some photoshop guy whose (?) work I like, got a hidef PSD that I converted to vector with Potrace.
    Very...
  2. Re: I'd like to commission someone for creating a vector file for me. How ?

    I'm sorry if my lack of clear directions irritate some people here, this is not why I posted here :(

    I have no "vision" in my mind. If I had, I'd probably finished all by myself.

    The meaning of...

    Re: Better line tool for 2014 ?

    It would be cool if you could ask the arrowheads to end at the line end, rather than start at the line end. At the moment, when you change the line width, you have to reposition the line so that...
  4. Re: Using Xara Designer and LibreOffice together

    From what I understand, LO only knows a subset of the SVG standard. For instance, embedded-bitmap are not supported at all (tried with 3 different such SVGs, all of them displayed fine in Inkscape...
  5. Re: I'd like to commission someone for creating a vector file for me. How ?

    OK, sorry for being unclear. English is not my language so bear with me. :confused:

    What I want is someone to continue my work, while keeping the same style for the rest. I have removed the...

    Re: Xara Designer Pro X10 Released

    One feature I miss from Artworks (Acorn's version of Xara DP) is the ability to have "internal" arrows instead of the external arrows we have now. The arrowheads can start at the end of a line...
  7. Re: I'd like to commission someone for creating a vector file for me. How ?

    I didn't say I wasn't able to do what I'm asking, I know it's just a matter of time. However, even if there's no flashy technique involved, it doesn't mean it's easy to build something aesthetically...
  8. Re: I'd like to commission someone for creating a vector file for me. How ?

    OK, what I need is to have the following file below "enhanced" with more or less the same style It has now.
    The style to be "copied" is used around the yellow and red circles. I tried to replicate...
  9. I'd like to commission someone for creating a vector file for me. How ?

    Hi,

    Title says it all. I want to have some vector artworks done for me, preferably with Xara (I have ver 9). Since this is for a hobby, I don't want to spend a lot on it (=not the hourly rate) but...
  10. Re: Using Xara Designer and LibreOffice together

    In LibreOffice: Import from file the SVG, file looks apparently fine
    Then save document as ODT, close LibreOffice, Reopen ODT in Libreoffice, what was a SVG before is now a super jaggy raster file....
  11. Re: Using Xara Designer and LibreOffice together

    Definitely, exporting back like saving out of LO (to further modify the schematic). Inside the ODT archive, I see no trace of a vector file (except when I use EMF/WMF which is a great shame)
  12. Re: Using Xara Designer and LibreOffice together

    Usually, I save to disk in SVG from Xara
    Then Import Image from file
    When I trying exporting back, I can't do so in SVG, only bitmap

    mwenz: if you want tinkering with some of the SVG I get, you...
  13. Re: Using Xara Designer and LibreOffice together

    Acorn: I forgot to say but I want to be able to exchange documents with my colleagues. It was very difficult working with them during the Acorn era because of file format wars. There's no way I'm...

    Hi all,

    I'm a Maths teacher and for a long time, I used Artworks, aka the ancestor of Xara, on an Acorn Risc PC computer along with Techwriter, a scientific wordprocessor.

    Both programs lived...

    Re: IS someone using Xara with Wine?

    If that can help, I installed virtualisation software called VirtualBox, installed a WinXP partition on it and Xara 9 on it. It runs at full speed on a core2duo machine and very very satisfied of...
