    Re: Again a woodcut from Albrecht Dürer

    Beautiful job, Ernie! If you are ever interested in the astronomy that led the Canaanites/Israelites to create the Samson story, I've shared it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGoZGmI6pKI.

  3. Re: you want a new vector tool rather than a rehash ?

    I believe most of this video was made with the grease pencil: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKmSdY56VtY. Tons of tutorials out there for using it, even though I never have - I've just been blown...

    handdrawn - have you looked at Blender's Grease Pencil tool lately? It is becoming quite powerful: Smoothing and adjusting strokes in Grease Pencil
  5. Re: What is the best way to export a wireframe 3D view in SolidWorks into Xara?

    One option I didn't see mentioned in this thread is to try exporting an STL file from Solidworks. Then you can open it in Blender (it has an STL import addon, I believe), or another 3d package with...

    Re: Xara Designer update service

    Just checked on these boards after years of absence to post asking the exact same thing, but for version 11. Haven't upgraded since, and get the popup the first time I start it in a day. Effin...

    Re: Which Windows to upgrade to: 7, 8.1, 10

    In Dallas, you might start at Frys or Microcenter. The current Microcenter deal is more expensive, but I have liked dealing with them more. If you look around, you can also find small mom and pop...

    And if you used only named colors, it would aid in making those impressive 8-bit graphics reproductions.

    Re: New Version of Photo & Graphic Designer

    In XP Pro 11, every time I use the line gallery for the first time, it seems to download the corresponding files from the web when the gallery first opens up. If I update, will I lose the lines and...
  11. Re: How can I organize the huge list of fonts in Xara?

    Mcffee: No, you cannot use it within Xara, sorry. It is a standalone program that can be used in conjunction with other programs, such as Xara. If you use it to install and remove fonts, your Xara...
  12. Re: How can I organize the huge list of fonts in Xara?

    This one's not free, but it was cool enough that I offered to help the author do some work on the program. He accepted, and payed me a bit for my bug hunting, so I am not totally unbiased, but the...

    Re: PDF export issue

    As long as the '1' is a 'pix.' The default is pt, and for the documents I've been working on, .25 pt makes more sense. (Or make the import linewidth an option - that may be the best option.)

    Yes, but not in this functionality. Hopefully they take my feedback in the next service pack, although I'm not holding my breath. I would upgrade if they did so...

    Re: PDF export issue

    I'm pretty certain this is some other drafting program that our customer is using, although I also have SolidWorks experience. I have been even more perplexed, because I have seen several PDFs where...

    Re: PDF export issue

    Thanks, Handdrawn. That is a workaround, but looking at the source PDF is not an option because many drafting programs put these out, and they are industry-wide. If they print with Adobe, they...

    PDF export issue

    Can anybody figure out an easy solution to exporting the attached file as PDF? It loses a bunch of lines when I do so. I've verified the results in Designer Pro 10 and the trial version of 11. ...

    Re: Move to current layer?

    Thanks. It isn't quite as easy to use as the old way, but I'll only complain a little above quietly! Finding the selected objects from a PDF that contains thousands of objects is difficult.

    Move to current layer?

    Do the newer versions of Xtreme have the 'Move to current layer' feature of the old versions? I can't find it - just move forward and backward, so I hope I'm overlooking something because that was...

    Re: Xara Designer Pro X10 Released

    Adding proper OpenType support would affect far more than 5% of your user base.

    Adding a gradient mesh would affect far more than 5% of your user base.

  22. Re: Version 10 programs - What do you think might be next?

    An FYI on my process, in case you hadn't thought of it: I blended from a background object given almost 100% transparency, to the top object. You can even duplicate the fills on both, to achieve a...
  23. Re: Version 10 programs - What do you think might be next?

    Mesh tool? Bigger outputs now that 64 bit capability has been achieved? Another of the vector tools that has been asked for? Better pens?



    Like the following? Or do you mean something else?...
