    Re: Un-combione shapes (without using undo)

    If the other changes you made are separate shapes, you can select those, hit copy (ctrl-c), then undo to uncombine. Then paste the new shapes in place.

    Re: How Designer Pro uses multi-threading

    To be honest, it saddens me to see that even a developer would have to examine it at all to find this out? I would hope that you would either already know it or you could look it up in your...

    Re: resizing a drawing

    The feathering region can't increase beyond 1.32 cm. If you upscale, you'll find the feathering of the red shape to be 1.32 cm, just like the original.
    Funny thing is, if you upscale, then downscale...
  5. Re: New versatile and improved Spiral Smart Shape

    I tried to repair my installation, but that didn't help.

    Do you have the same build? (40121)
  6. Re: New versatile and improved Spiral Smart Shape

    I tried using the OCC, and hard refresh as well, but to no avail. Just three control points.

    I deleted spiral1.xar from \AppData\Local\Xara\XtremePro\11\Cache\designs\eng\smartshapes\general\ and...

    Re: X11 Vector Tool Improvement; Arrowheads

    I am pretty sure that Xara already has a list of features that can technically be implemented, and that they choose a number of them for each new version. If they could post (part of) such a list,...

    Re: Creating brush stroke shape question

    The only way to do that is to learn programming and get a job at Xara.
    And then convince them that this is an option lots of people want.

    Sorry.

  11. Re: How to make a dotty halftone gradient effect?

    How about the painting live effect (in Designer Pro X)?

    Just draw your shaped and fill them with the required color. I used a gradient fill. Then apply the painting filter. I selected the...

    Re: Glossy Text and still editable

    Gave it a quick try. My text isn't as nice and glossy as yours, but it's easily edited.

    First created the text, filled it with a red and black plasma, then applied a bevel. After that, I added a...

    Re: Floor Shadow

    As always there is a (limited) way around this. Apply the usual floor shadow, then convert the shadow to editable object. Ungroup, then you can flip the shadow and put it in the required...

    Treasure map for kids birthday party

    I made a treasure map of our neighbourhood for my 6-year old kids birthday party. I based it on a Bing aerial photo. For the colouring I used the "rushed" brush extensively, which resulted in a...

    Try to combine the black and orange shapes on the left. I suspect it only happens with overlapping shapes.

    The result is a shape in a group in a group, part of which turned light gray and part of...

    Re: Live copy problem with brushes

    I agree that it does work when you 'edit inside' it. This raises another point though. When changing the fill colour or applying a bitmap fill you do not need to 'Edit inside'. Why this inconsistency?
