    I am too lazy to create named colours for them, it's past my bed time

    So, just to be sure, you Xara name for you? Tom

    It can be very addictive.

    Bill, we (group) were talking earlier about making Objects with Variations of a Color, and how, if not careful, Xara would Name All the Objects the New Color. But, there was a 'Work-around' letting Xara 'name' the new color variation itself (it would do something like color2) (I asked as I wanted to make a 'Library' of Different Colored Ojects... And Xara was 'resisting' me ;-^) Tom

    Better now?

    Indeed, Bill. When I saw all those rainbow colours, I thought of the old Carmen Miranda movies where she wore hats that looked like a bowl of fruit. (No, I'm not that old!

    The other thing I thought of was that the Eliptical Envelope rainbow row would be good to use for dragon scales. Voila! A rainbow dragon!

    lol!!! I feel like a big kid!

    Thanks for explaining Tom. I'm sometimes dense and slow on following (can't be I'm getting old, must be short attention span ).
    There is a utility available on the XaraXone that will name the colours for you. I'll have to give it a try to see how it works.


    Doug I am old enough to remember Carman Miranda movies I was always facinated how she could balance that heavy load of fruit on her head and dance

    Rainbow dragon scales, OH that does sound like a lot of fun to try.
    Xara programs can make all of us feel like kids again

    An acquired skill (talent?) indeed! :-)

    I wish my sketching/drawing skills were better, I'd come up with a dragon or two for your scales. Something like the cartoon dragon from Weta's Jane and the Dragon: http://www.ytv.com/programming/shows/Jane_Dragon/

    Bill, can you remember the name of the 'Color' Namer/ReNamer Utility?

    And, did anyone see Carman Miranda in Post World War II movie, Solders on Train and Carman was getting 'Flying' Lesson from one... (took me back to childhood when you guys start talking about her - I remember some of the few movies & TV appearances where I saw her... Thanks for the Memories)

    Old Tom ;-^)

    Tom the utility was created by Brian Etherington and is named XColour.

    You can down load it from Gary's XaraXone Shareware area. http://www.xaraxone.com/html/shareware.html

    There is also a link to one of Egg Bramhill's tutorial showing how to use XColour.
