How to create Rings?

Gnurf - you still have un under/over where there should be an over/under.

Not my reason for butting in this thread though.
While not rings, I needed to play with over & under knots and things for a site banner.

Relatively easy, agreed.
Just mentioning it in passing as 'tis related and was, naturally, all done in Xara ...

No, this time i got it right as I made it the same way the original is, posted by Remi. OTH you are right, it's not "correctly" overlapping, but I did a correct version earlier that wasn't accepted as it didn't equal the original example. Phew, you cannot please everybody, can you

That's right, so we may as well just please ourselves > grin <

You'll find a tutorial with Bob Hahn's technique in the current Xara Workbook 50.

Nice tutorial, Bob and Gary!

This is my .xar file, with a single object, a bitmap image imported from Xara3D. The X3D file only has 3 rings in it. They overlap the way they do in Remi's original image. The original .xar file that created the X3D file contained a single ring.

Cheers,
Mike

Dead clever that - I'll check out the files.
