I don't see the lines between tiles in Xara. It happens when the file is exported as a PNG.
It's a famous old bug that's been around for many years in images created in Illustrator and Inkscape...
Thanks for all the replies, and suggestions!
I hope this thread helps someone!
I used an old program called Patternshop to explain what I was trying to do in Xara.
1- In this image, you see the base tile and 2 patterns created from that tile. The 2 patterns are exactly...
Lines in patterns are an old bug that's been around for years. That's a distraction from my question.

It could be another number like 8in x 8in, 12in x 12in, etc. I was just trying to create a large-size pattern that was seamless.
The base tile that I had was 4in x 4in, and a 20in x 20in square...
The base tile that you used must have been changed by the website I used to share the image. If you take a look at the last picture that I posted you can see that inside the large square, there are...
Let me just say this: I know how to create a base tile without outlines and use it in a large square to create a pattern in Xara (bitmap fill + repeating pattern, resize the pattern inside the square...
You have to hold the CTRL while you move the handles to keep the ratio.
I forgot to explain that I'm using the bitmap fill to create the pattern.
This is what I did:
1- imported the base tile
2- created a 20"x20" square (without outlines)
3- select the square and...
What were the steps you used to achieve that result? especially how did you resize the base tile inside the 8"x8" square?
This is the base tile, which is 2"x2":

This is what I get when I resize it inside the 20"x20" square. make a copy of the square and use snapping to put the 2 squares...
This is what I'm trying to achieve:
I've already created a seamless tile that is 4"x4".
From that tile I'm trying to create a square of 20"x20" that's also seamless in Xara.
So the final image...
Thanks, Mwenz and Egg!
Nice tips. I didn't know about that Dmitry Malutin's Spray. =D>
I spend hours yesterday trying to get the same effect (objects inside a irregular shape).
Then I tried...
I'm trying to place objects inside a heart shape.

It only happens when there's nobody there to see it.

Thanks, Angelize.
That's perfect.
Thanks everyone.
That solved it, PhilM.
The feathering helped. Just playing a little with the "profile of the feather region" to make it more gradual.
Yes, the Contour Tool has a specific...
I was considering contour as the following definition:
"Noun
An outline, esp. one representing or bounding the shape or form of something."
@Handrawn,
That's a circular transparency.
Round shape:

The star has no tips.

Like the elliptical transparency it starts solid and ends 100% transparent following the shape (contour).
The star was created by applying the elliptical transparency to 4...
None of those!
:'(
I see steps (dark red, light red, lighter red...)
It has to fade gradually.
Using the circular transparency as an example of what I'm looking for.
Notice that the star transparency is not smooth, it has steps. I don't want the steps. I piled some stars to illustrated what...
Is it possible to have it using Xara?
Let's say I want the transparency to follow the shape of a star.
I hope my question makes sense.
