Hello Angelize,

Re: "I couldn't help thinking how much easier that part would be in Xara!"

I often think that too. There is (sometimes) an advantage to doing it in Blender. If you are animating the scene, all the adjustments are done to each frame. If there are 120 frames, that's a lot of images to adjust in Xara. Also, you'll have to use the compositor if you want to do realistic depth-of-field images. Since the software knows the depth (from camera) of all the objects, it can selectively defocus and emulate bokeh effects.

I agree with you though, for basic image editing, it's intuitive and easier in Xara.

Peace
