I would like to suggest a Perlin noise tool that would expand on the fractal fills and transparencies that are already present in Xara programs. A tool of it's own that could be set to either fill or transparency with a dropdown list of a few more modes like clouds, plasma, electricity and organic. the fill/transparency handles could work the same as they do for the current fractal fills/transparencies and three profile sliders could provide control over contrast, roughness and detail. When transparency is selected an additional dropdown like the current transparency dropdown list of blending modes could appear on the infobar. And while we are talking blending modes would it be possible to have a complete set of properly named blending modes like almost any other program out there?

This would be quite a useful tool for adding texture into drawings and compositions.
