    Hello Guys!

    Last night I found very simple way to drawing Alive line looks pictures. Of course, this technique based on closed paths (for more convenient colouring)and Xara's shape combining (which works incomparably better than corel's, illustrator's and others). You can use mouse or graphic tablet (better),
    Here is my mini-tutorial, try it...

    Thank you all guys!

    You really have come up with a nice, easy-to-use formula!

    ?? Do you have a recommendation for a line width to set as your default before you begin sketching with a Stroke ??

    This is a great example where giving Xara the ability to record and save series of basic functions as a script would be extremely beneficial.

    and can probably be built-in to Xara using something like Macro Express (www.macros.com) although I know there are other similar programs. No, I've not tried it in Xara but it saved me a lot of time in Inspiration a couple of years ago.

    ==========================
    The best results I've got with settings 6 or 8pt for 800 x 600 pix page (and If the picture covers almost all area of page)But sometimes I used very fat strokes. All depends on a theme of a picture...
