  1. Re: You can't normally reshape an image with the Mould Tool ...

    @Acorn, I'm not sure to understand what you mean. Is it:
    - import a picture;
    - rotate it by 90°;
    - use it as an art brush;
    - then what happens?

    @gwpriester, man, this answer of yours makes me wonder how many of these 'hidden' features are buried inside the user interface.

    Also, using Xara interface nowadays feels like being Cypher watching Matrix world through the console... I mean... it's so old style!

    Re: Extracing portions of an image

    Did anyone try to use masking plugins like Fluid Mask inside Xara Designer Pro?

    I'm looking for a way to produce easily complex selections, like hairs.

    Thanks for any advice!

    Guyke, did you try rendering this scene in Blender Cycles. I bet you'd see a good improvement with very low effort.

    Re: Serif DrawPlus X5

    Again, thanks for your answer.
    I used PhotoLine back a couple of years and found it a very interesting piece of software. Extremely tight and fast, while a bit out of standards in terms of UI.

    Hi all,
    I just received a pre-sale offer for the brand new release.

    Re: XDP7 - 64bit, large ram?

    Samrc, sorry but this is pointless: sure enough the app run smoothly but it cannot access more than 3GB of RAM, that is the main advantage of 64 bit apps.

    I for one hoped for a full 64 bit release...
