How to learn Xtreme 5?

[ngutman]

I just installed Xtreme 5 and am impressed. I have a hard time to learn it and wonder what would be a good way to master this wonderful program. The Help files are great and extensive.
For example in the 3D Extrude Tool>Textures&Photos section I would like to reproduce the example but how do I use the Selector tool to make the reflection?
In short how do I learn all what this great program can do?
Thanks,
Nathan

Do not know if you can find it anywhere but Gary Bouton wrote a great book called "Xara Xtreme 5 The Official Guide". I went through that book from cover to cover and learned a ton. It is some great examples that you can download for doing the exercises in the book. I think you would really enjoy it if you can find a copy. It is published by McGraw Hill if that helps.

It sounds like you are doing all the right things to learn. Keep doing what you are doing and do as Rik suggests using the Xone as a resource, and most of all use the program, that and do some experimenting.
