Re: HI.. absolute begginer here
All the basic tools work like in the windows version. Text tool is a bit buggy, you have to change font once to write.
OT I'm thinking to myself here, would there be any demand for a beginners-guide-to-vector-graphics-with-xaralx site? I got a site set up on a CMS (with easy to use content adding capabilities) just waiting for content. I participated in a vector gfx course (on corel) in school some years ago so I have some kind of picture of what should be included. Maybe this should be in another thread....
Re: HI.. absolute beginner here
There are a lot of very nice tutorials to Xara and sure you can make very helpfull tutorials. What I am looking for is a simple describing of different tools. E g. I can not figure out how to crop selections in Xara.:o. That is so elementary that I didn't want to ask...
Re: HI.. absolute begginer here
Hi
you could have a look at these videos
http://www.xara.com/us/products/xtreme/tutorials-demos/
they are windows based so may not all be fully applicable to linux - but they cover the basics..
Re: HI.. absolute begginer here
the basic way of cropping is to place a rectangle over the picture - select both and intersect shapes [ctrl+3] - this should work in any version of xtreme
this is covered in the changing objects videos...
Re: HI.. absolute begginer here
Thank you handdrawn! That was not so simple as I beleived. Maybe I can manage everything else :cool:
Re: HI.. absolute begginer here
if you have more question we will always help if we can - good luck :)
BTW if you have the rectangle set to no fill it is easier to see what you are cropping, I cannot remember if that is covered in the video tutorials or not..
