Hello Katsu,

I like your drawings very much. You have a beautiful use of brushes.

And a big Hello to Japan! Your country has not so much members on this forum.
In another domain I experienced with the excellent free plugins created for Lightwave 3D by generous japanese people. I have also good friends (botanists because... take a look at my profile) in Chiba and Shizuoka University!

Kind regards,

ivan

Xara X seems to redraw almost everything after every new line. Still I think there is no vector editor which has fast enough brush drawing.

How about using layers to store the stages of drawing. Store the current state of drawing in the separate layer and use the bitmap copy of that stage for faster editing.. (switch the layer with the vector originall, off) then when you are finished delete the bitmap copies of the stages and enable all layers visible. It's just an idea... I didn't test it yet.

Thanks Ross, Gary. Both of your comments encourage me to post another trial.

Thanks BCDEB.

Yes I use different hard disk for data.
Maybe the brush is too complicated as explained in attached file.

Isn't XaraX the ONLY vector program (except RealDRAW, but that's different) that can render vector brushes?
All these pictures are very well done and very creative, this is a great new feature to X no?

Thanks Dmagician. You are right. I use layers and it works better when some layers are inactive.

That's lovely! Hard to believe a vector illustration program like Xara can produce something so painterly!

I don't think I welcomed you to the forums before. I'm sure I can speak for everyone - It is great to have your participation. I hope you share your Xara experiences with us.

Regards, Ross
