    Default can't spin

    Hello everybody, I'm just start working with Xara and I've tried to make a spin this logo for mysite, but I quite because I think it is not possible for me.

    In this image I want the blue part spin clockwise and red counterclokwise.

    but both of themspin around this image RUSHELP.

    It is like RUSHELP in the middle the two part of the logo spinnig around it..

    Does anybody get what I meant?

    Burzum the red and blue image is a jpg file. You must create the red and blue shapes as vectors before you can import them into Xara3D and make them spin.

    Please use the Search feature of the forum. This question has been asked hundreds of times in the past.

    Egg Bramhill has an excellent tutorial about the difference between vector and bitmapped images http://www.xaraxone.com/vector_bitmap.swf

    Hello Soquili

    Sorry for repeating questions, but when I create a shape in Xtreame, how would I add two types of animation. I mean one is going in one direction or other going in other direction.

    Or just make a text in 3D "TalkGraphics" so the Talk is did one anymation and the Graphics the other?

    Sorry Burzum, I misunderstood your question before.

    Hopefully the attached images will explain how to have different animations for two different shapes.

    Thanks alot for your explanation, and attached image.

    One more question,

    If I want use your .gif file that you attached how would i add a this image and my imgae that says RUSHELP, so the animation doesn't desepear?

    I can't attached your file as a bagkground, because it's not going to fit the text RUSHELP.

    Burzum,

    You will need to create your own shapes and import them into Xara3D. The .gif file cannot be used as a background and show animation.

    If you do not have Xara Xtreme or Xtreme Pro (or a previous version of Xara X or X¹) you can use Xara Webster. I believe Webster still comes with Xara3D. You can also use other programs to create .wmf vector shapes that can be imported into Xara3D.
