Hello
I bought the beta of Xara Studio, when I saw it at the Windows show in early 1994. It's abilities and speed were amazing then and in many ways still are now.

Hello
I have to say that I cannot get Xara in WinXP to use Photoshop 7 filters. It will use the KPT filters and others that conform to the protocol,but not all.
I can get it to use some...

Hello
Here is a vector sparkle.
It is made with two layers using fractal fills/transparency with very high dpi.
The text is a clipview that is bevelled with a high dpi plasma transparency.

Hello
I was inccurate in claiming that the shape changes. What I meant that there is a problem when cutting/intersecting the shape, which is annoying.

Hello
Thanks for the tip for removing the tears.
What this does show is that Xarax does have some problems with accuracy. The conversion to shape, changes the shape of the object, that is a...

I have not seen this as a topic before,it is probably not new, but has anyone applied brush profiles to circles with large strokes.

Hello Rich
I'm not sure what you are trying to do.
What is wrong with using Photoshop paths?
The mask derived from the PNG exported by XaraX if exported at 300 dpi should be as accurate as a mask...
Hello
If you export as a PNG < Truecolour +Alpha then Photoshop will import it. You can derive a Photoshop mask from the PNG Ctrl Click on the layer in the pallette. Photoshop will not import a...
Hello
You should also find that the image is also offset upward slightly. It has been a problem for some time. I think that it has something to do with the bounds. Try exporting a image with a...
Hello
It is possible that you have a 'BAD' font. These can really make Adobe products unstable and possibly Xarax as well.
Do Photoshop or Illustrator take a very long time to load? Load fonts...
Hello
Looks like I can now reproduce the bug.
I made another layer(30 and a elipse in the layer.
Moved the layer between layers 1 and 2. Select the middle layer. Selected all the objects and...
Hello
I don't have a problem either.
I made four layers and moved the layers up and down and moved objects between layers.
I use a Matrox Millenium G550 with XP pro.
It could be a video...
Hello
I did post a smaller screen shot and saw it, but it is not there now. Apologies.
The screen shot is taken from .ai in the posted zip. You can import it with .ai or by renaming as .eps, with...
Hello
Certain very simple .ai will import into Xarax, by using the Corel 3 or 4 filter or the Freehand one. Also they might import with no stroke or colour, but can be selected using tab.
I can...

As a experiment to compare Xarax gradients and those of Photoshop, I made a linear gradient of 256x256 pixels.
All levels are in the gradient. I exported it as a tif at 96dpi. I opened it...

Hello
It is not a great inconvenience, but it is intriguing.
There are in the install folder, some strange files, including XML4.msi and MSIExecWin2K.exe.
The latter when double clicked,...
Hello
I have installed XaraX1 from the new CD.
Should I be able to view the movies, by using the link in the help menu?
I see the list of movies, but there are no links to actually start them....

Hello
Now that XaraX boasts a live update, it would be handy to have the dpi size( in the status line) of images being resized updated in real time, rather than seeing the size after releasing the...

This is one type of photography that is almost impossible using a tripod. These creatures are very mobile ands will fly off with the slightest disturbance. The best you can do to work a...
