How to do this in Xara?

[Peter P.]

In my ongoing struggle, to figure out which program to choose, I took a drawing in Real Draw and examined some objects of the drawing, to see if I can redraw them in Xara. Now I'm facing a problem with rebuilding an object in Xara. Object1 in Real Draw is created with bevel and 3D lights. Whatever I try to do in Xara, I don't seem to accomplish the same in Xara. Especally the results of the 3D lights effects, seem impossible for me to achieve in Xara. I tried transparency, blends, bevels, feathers etc. I would like to see, if someone knows the answers to get me some results, because I'm really in the need for these 3D effects you can see in Object1, to include them in my future projects,

Any help is really appreciated,,

Peter.
