Thanks a lot Mike. I'll have a crack at it this weekend. I'm beginning to think it looks a bit too fussy, but I'll finally decide whether to use it or not when I've managed to finish it. Thanks...

Thanks a lot Mike. I'll have a crack at it this weekend. I'm beginning to think it looks a bit too fussy, but I'll finally decide whether to use it or not when I've managed to finish it. Thanks...
Ok, I've been away for a while. I got the text rotating on its own over the background as Simsmj suggested. Ideally I think it would look better if I had the border stationary but over the...
Hi Mike,
Brilliant! Believe me, I tried everything that I could I think of. I guess it's just a matter getting the hours in the driving seat. Xara is very intuitive, up to a point, but then you...
Hi,
Seems everytime I post I'm bitching about something. Anyway, here's a poser for all you Xara gurus. I'm trying to do a title graphic for a DVD. I want the border to be static and a number of...
Thanks for the suggestion Parahandy. It's not really a huge issue. It's easy enough to just flip to IE if I want to post. It was more the cheek of the program for doing it to me... like sneaking...
Yes, I agree but Jose might care. If he does then he might also like to know that, in the 51st minute , the half minute calibration is off centre. And I can't recall ever seeing a shadow (on the wood...
That is spookily good. The chrome is stunning. Can i just ask a question though? Does it look to anyone else as though there are 14 minutes in the first hour quarter and 16 minutes in the last?

I still can't find mine!! At the moment I'm in IE, its the only browser I can use with this forum to post/edit/delete/view attachments - I normally use Firefox. Everywhere is fine in FFox except...
Thanks for the suggestion Ankhor. It's an .avi and I exported to an avi editor, but the resave was poor The problem is that the editor has to interpret the various frame values and with a sequence as...
Thanks James. I just want to pause frame after one rotation of a title graphic. It's a credits sequence with several pages and, as the text rotates to "full frontal", I want a 3 second pause before...
Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to alter the frame pause on an individual frame for an .avi export? I've tried opening the .avi animation in a third party program, but when I resave it the graphics...
Hi Gerry,
The email address you gave me gets knocked back. According to Xara it "is no longer maintained".
I guess you can't download attachments from this forum. I've sent a private message with...
Ah-ha... It was Firefox browser all along. I opened in IE and got my buttons back. Not exactly a giant leap for mankind but I'll take anything I can get at this stage,

Hi,
Much luck! Thanks for the attachment but viewing attachments is also disabled as well my reply button, and anything else remotely connected to Xara it seems.
I can still post a new thread...
I'm sure this sounds stupid, but my "reply" button has disappeared. I've looked everywhere an - no reply buttons. Don't suppose anyone knows where it is?
Hi.
Well I finally bought the full program. I thought that might cure the constant "Acess Violation" messages. It didn't work. Mind you, I now get an upgraded "Access Violation" message. Instead...
Hi Gerry,
The art gallery have strictly forbidden publishing anything on the web. If you can give me an email address, I'll email it. I might be a little paranoid about this but I have too much...
I don't really understand why 800kb is considered large. I am animating over a photograph for publication on a DVD. The art gallery that authorised the use of the photo of one of their paintings has...
No, it wasn't that! It's the program that's faulty. I tried to save three frames of an animated gif and the fault recurred. The frames are less than 800Kb apiece. I can manipulate graphics files of...
Thanks James. It was an animated overlay on a photograph, so I suppose it must have been the file size that freaked the computer out now that you mention it. I'll try frequent saves, as you suggest,...
Hi,
Every time I try to save a gif animation file I get "access violation @ offset 0X003B82DC". Xara then closes and I lose all my work. It just dumped a 90 frame animation for me. A bit...
Thanks James,
I'm showing geometric diagrams being built up on a background of an old painting. It wasn't all that uncommon for artists to encode messages in their paintings during the Renaissance...
Sorry to be such a pain. I now need to animate on a photographic background. I can find no way of opening a background image and a foreground image in the animation window, neither can I animate...
Thanks Soquili, Gamani did the trick... a walk in the park. What a great resource this forum is!!
