    Default Change the shape of the "text area" possible ?

    Hello

    I am owner of the Xtreme5 Xara version (i've not already get more recents ones ! ), and I would like to know if it is possible to change the text area, not to have a squirreled shape for this text. (Or if there another method, I am interested in too !)

    Very useful when you have to surround the shape of a picture, for instance...

    I put a simple picture to explain easily... :

    Mai Oui

    Create your text area. Create the object that will repel the text and bring the object that will repel the text to the front.

    Right click on the object and select Repel Text Under. Set the distance that you wish the text to offset and press Repel.

    Oh yes, of course the famous "Repel Text Under"

    I always forget this very useful tool...


    "Merci beaucoup" ! (and thanks for your very clear explanation )
