Thanks boy. No, did you see the video above?
I would just put another same picture on top of it, darken it and with transperancy tool only show the darkened photo on top over the bottom one until it is right Arrow slider from left top to end lightened area.
Tried that originally ankhor but I couldn't achieve a decent result ;)
Egg, that is amazing. I am always impressed with what can be done with Xara if someone knows the program like you do.
BUT - the obvious question is, WHY does one have to go through all that you did here just to touch up and lighten areas of a photo? I have not tried it but someone told me it can be done on an iphone. This is something Xara should have had years ago - and we still don't have it.
Again, tks for you help and time - I have a couple of other photos that have areas that need to be improved but they would not be able to be done as you did this one - they are peoples faces and area around them that have been lightened much as this photo had been done but there is no way to cut/slice and move to other areas of the photo. - jb
Cheers jb. There are definitley photo manipulation software that can do this better but a lot more expensive than Xara. My workaround is specific to this photo.
An iphone is just another computer, such statements tend to say "I can do this on my mobile phone, which I can't do on my desktop".Quote:

Xara has always been at concept a vector drawing program not a bitmap painting program. The fact that the two have become blurred (not to mention the web design & desktop pulishing options) then you have no reason for complaint.
