    Lightbulb Interesting bevel-on-text effect ...

    ... though of limited use - textured wall paper perhaps?

    Probably - I'll have to investigate further. It's the background repetition that I liked though, as much as getting part of the text transparent etc

    Hi John, I put a 3 colour filled rectangle at the back and I'm not sure what use that is either. The duplicated text effect is very neat, I agree.

    After rumination I've decided it's Pop-Art*, not utilitarian I think I was intrigued how the bit that was taken away was filled, the filled bit was taken away and the duplication appeared from nowhere ... all from 'joining shapes'. Xara is FUN, isn't it!
