scaling envelopes with bitmaps??

Could someone tell me if I can
make a bitmap in a drawing
distort with the scaling
envelope. No luck so far.


Thanks, Kevin

You want to create a morph effect, however only the perspective moulds work in this way. The best Xara workaround I can think of is to convert the bitmap to shapes using the Bitmap Tracer. You can then apply a mould or any vector transformation.

at least in XaraX - at may well work on CorelXara.

Right click on the bitmap - and set to editable shape. You can then apply the mould tool.

As long as you keep the shape within the confines of the bitmap you won't get a tiled image.

Just tried your tip, Simon, but all that changes is the shape of the bitmap, not the bitmap itself.

Rats! I knew that sounded too good to be true [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]
