    Default Re: Viewing Xara clipart (Xara 10)

    Mark, v10 came with access to the Online Content Catalogue, free for access forever.

    Use Insert > From Content Catalogue > Clipart.

    This can also be opened to view only at http://downloadsv10.xara.com/web/catalog/index.html, which might help as well.

    I also have downloaded Everything and you could then use a Search > C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Xara\XtremePro\10\Cache\designs\eng \clipart\ *.xar with Large Thumbnails selected to find and then drag onto your design.
    I have 1,333 v10 ClipArt XAR files, some are quite good. Why Xara abandoned them, I guess we'll never know.

    The following uses three of the mon*.xar clipart files.
    Who could ever forget the original illuminated manuscript Xara Logo:

    Ye Olde Xara Logo.xar
    The XAR when rendered with XPro+v21.7 has no images created whatsoever, it is all now SVG-rendered.
    Instead of a 1.4MB image being called, the index.htm is now much larger (540kB vs 2.9kB) with every shape and line now a vector.

    Vellum to Vector.
