    Default Re: 3D Puzzle pieces - Need Help please or pointers.

    Create the puzzle pieces in Xtreme as solid shapes and one color only. Then copy and paste the puzzle piece or pieces into Xara 3D where you can rotate them, add a bevel, depth, and lighting.

    A slightly more complex way would be to import or paste each puzzle piece into Xara 3D and then treat each piece as text. You can adjust the kerning space (the space between the characters or in this case the puzzle pieces), and the line spacing, to make the puzzle pieces fit together. Once all the pieces are in place, then you can start free rotating them.
