Novice Here: Applying shapes and textures.

[-=Drifter=-]

The original SHAPE made in Xtreme can be COPIED right in Xtreme then pasted into 3D. The texture on the other hand must be exported from Xtreme as a jpg or gif or png and then when in 3D go to textures, locate it, and it should cover your already pasted shape.

Ive come to the conclusion my Xara 3D doesnt work properly. I copy my shape in Xtreme but it just wont paste into 3D. And the picture will not open from Texture options on my imported shape (as i cant paste it form 3D). lol..get your head round that...lol

Try a SIMPLE test. Just draw a square or a circle in Xtreme, Edit/Copy shape, go to 3D and use Edit/Paste.

Just done that...nothing happens. Strange that!

Can you copy and paste text from notepad to Word, for example?

[Sloppy]

Yes i can do that. So do you think its a problem with my Xara?

You need someone in here with more expertise in this matter than me. Sorry, I'm at a loss.

Upload the relevant files here - that's probably the only way we'll know whether it's you, your apps or your pooter.

Ok BF, Never done this upload thingy on a forum. Hope it works!

Thanks for your help!

Hi

Having had a play... I wonder if your Xtreme shape has too many points. The text is the main culprit. Without the text, it works fine.
