Well, I've been away from Xara for a long, long time so.... :)
Thanks Acorn
Long time no see...
I was just playing with the new Xara Pro+ to see if it's something I should purchase or not, and I tried to add a button to the toolbar on the left. I opened the button pallet,...
That illustration was done back in 2003 (had to check back over the logs on this site to find that). I suspect I have a copy of the file around here somewhere, but exactly where, I'm not exactly...
Sort of...
It all depends on what you are after. Here is an image I did in Xara a loooooooooooong time ago that was nothing more than a pencil sketch that was scanned, hand 'multiply' transparency...
That is a shame. One of my main interests in upgrading was the addition of graphs. I don't normally use any of the premade things, but as I do a lot of graph work (mostly in an iPython noteboot with...
I appreciate the information.... I don't appreciate the hoops that have to be jumped through to use this component though (obviously on Xara's part, not yours).
So, how am I supposed to know that...
A test file that doesn't export to pdf correctly...

Sorry for the late reply. I ended up just doing a bitmap copy of the graph instead of the smart graph. I just checked it again and it is still doing the same. Often times the app crashes as well and...
I'm attempting to export a 2 page document with embedded smart charts (bar and line) to pdf (email distro) and the document exports fine but without the graphs. Anyone seen this behavior before?
Ahh, that's what I needed... I didn't realize that there was a specific variable corner smart shape. I thought it was a feature of the smart shape squares/rectangle... it never dawned on me to look...
Ok, I've seen a few references to having individual control of the corner radius but I can' t figure out how that is being done. I also couldn't find anything online for it, just Gary mentioning it...
We have a winner!
Thank you much, that did it. I didn't even realize that was there... but then you can't expect to know everything after only +-20 years of using a product. ;)
Thanks again,
Thanks for the input folks. I tried to launch it via 'administrator' with no changes to the app. As for your suggestion Larry, I had actually tried to do something like that before but I am unable to...
My gallery flyout is broken. I thought someone here might have a fix. Basically it shows my layers gallery but that's it. If I turn the flyout off it doesn't change anything. If I uncheck the page...
You know, I vaguely remember that app from long ago. Hard to believe it is still needed. That's just silly.
However, it not only put the pen where it needed to be, but also seemed to suddenly...
Hey all... long time since I've been here. There might be a few that remember me, those that don't, you didn't miss much.
To my question. I've got Designer Pro 11 and I'm trying to add some tools...
I have not tired it with the latest version of Xara but previously my experience with Xara and AS was not good. The vectors imported fine into AS but, the number of points in the objects increased...
Haven't posted in a while so I thought I'd share....Here is a simple logo / illustration I did for an internal application I'm working on.
All told, not counting the loss of an hours work to a program shutdown, probably 3 hours. Should of been quicker, but it will do.

If I'm following what you want... bring in your fabirc swatch and the stitch pattern. Place the stitch pattern on top, select the transparency tool and on the 'type' dropdown (it will say 'mix' ) ...
Thanks guys. I don't get many chances to use Xara for work these days (mostly doing development work) and my typical personal Xara work a sort of 'mixed media'. So for being just a phone, it was a...
Well, I don't do a lot of technical illustrations so I thought I'd share this one. It's late and I'm done for tonight so chances are I've forgotten a thing or two, but here is an illustration I've...
Very slick rendering. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks folks. I'll see what I can do about posting more. I don't manage to get a lot of work done each year and what I do get done isn't all done in Xara. I'm glad this one was well met.

I'm of two mindsets on this. On the one hand a little modernization to the interface I think is warranted. It would also be nice to have an easier way to modify the workspace and save multiple...
