    Exponential spirals - http://xaraxtv.at.tut.by/downloads.htm - look for SPX, You make a spiral and just drag'n'drop in xara. Look also for LSVG - VERY interesting

    Thanks all so much. I wish xara had a button to make partial circle /ellipses within the pen tool. ..

    You might also ckeck out livebrush.
    There is a free version and a pro version which is very cheap ($10)
    It's a fun program. There are a few tutorials you can find, if you look hard enough.

    Nice link to the Livebrush Larry.

    I couldn't see whether the created patterns could be saved/exported so that they can be used in Xara?
    Do you or anyone else know?

    I made a set of shapes and added them to a scroll or drawing.

    Xara scroll drawing into Expression for a tire track stroke. The track was drawn in Xara, and made into a vector stroke.

    I tried it out but it doesn't look like it does. At least not directly. I would like to investigate further though.

    I don't know either, I'll try though. I have the paid version installed(not that makes any real difference in how it works though) don't know how to really use it, and only took at it ocasionally. It is fun though.
