    Re: What the font...

    I don't think the R of Roboto quite works. It has a straight leg, whereas the example has a curvy one. I think Vinila Regular (yes, it is spelled like that) is a better match.

  5. Re: Which other brand graphic design software do you use and why?

    I hadn't come across artboards before, although I've probably done something similar in the past using a large page. A nice concept, and I see that Affinity Designer has artboards. Something to try...
  6. Re: Which other brand graphic design software do you use and why?

    I stopped upgrading Xara at X9, and still use it on ongoing annual projects. However, I did get Affinity Photo, Designer and Publisher and have used them recently on a project, feeding Photo into...

    Re: Pop-Out Effect

    This is a very quick and dirty attempt:

  10. Re: Make 2 ellipses equispace around their circumference

    It's close, but as Phil said, a line equidistant to an ellipse is not itself an ellipse. The attached shows a wide lined ellipse (in red) over two ellipses that have been widened by the same absolute...

    No problem :)
  12. Re: Make 2 ellipses equispace around their circumference

    You'll get the same problem if you resize a rectangle as opposed to a square. Because the ellipse and rectangle are longer in one direction than the other, the same percentage increase in each...

    Curious, I have X and Y offset boxes to the right of the blur and transparency sliders on the tool bar. They are greyed out for shadows other than drop shadow, but for drop shadow they are active....

    Re: Paint road map

    Just a thought, but since the roads are the more complex item, it might be easier to consider things the other way round, and have a background which is the road texture, with the non-road areas...

    It appears that you can get round corner cutters (Google for "round corner cutter") both as a single cutter for about six quid which seems to be used in the hobby craft market as well as larger hand...

    Re: What is the best way to design a tab shape?

    Maybe make a rounded rectangle, apply a perspective to it with mould tool, then chop off the bottom half.

    Re: 3-way fill question

    It is an alternative way to do stripes, and you can get a hard edge. When you slide one point over another it will flick over, so you then back off slightly. If that isn't as sharp as you want, you...

    You can use the linear gradient to make distinct bands if you use extra points, so use red, red, white, white, green, green, then slide the second red onto the first white and the second white onto...

    Activate old pen tool in XD Pro X

    There was a fix to put the old bezier pen tool (the Shift+F5 one) back in XD Pro 7, which I can't seem to find. Can anyone tell me what it was, and if it still works for XD Pro X?

    Many thanks....

    Re: Installation from CD not smooth

    Jon,

    Thanks for that.

    Previously the CD version has had more data on it, but I guess that since the program accesses samples/fonts/templates etc. over the web that isn't so necessary anymore.
