    Default Pasting an image in 3D from Xtreme

    Hey guys..For some reason I'm having a problem pasting an image in
    X3D from Xtreme.

    I drew (traced) this image (Black and White). In this image the outline has been filled with black, but when I copy and paste no fill is selected.


    and I get this image (Red). The problem is that it does NOT include the outline of the drawing. I was successfull one time when I did this but I cannot figure out how I did it. I've made certain that I have the outline selected when I add it to my clipboard. If I select only the outline, I can successfully paste it in, but as soon as I select an element within the outline and the outline, only that object will paste?

    Appreciate any help.

    Here is the one I manage to do. I guess I should have saved it. If you look closely it includess the outline and the wiskers etc.

    bit difficult to assess whats wrong without seeing the xar file.

    personally I never copy and paste into xara3D - I always save vector as seperate xar file and then import that into xara3D

    Hi Crypto,

    Convert the lines to shapes before copying from Xtreme.

    thanks for the replys. I tried to convert the lines. Importing has the same results (no Outline) No luck

    edit- You were right. My first effort to convert was by selecting the line in question and selecting convert to shapes.. This didn't work, so I went uner the edit menu and selected "convert line to shape". It worked.

    thanks so much for the help!!!

    duplicating your 16 shapes , grouping these and then joining shapes produces this [white -recolored black] - does this help?

    EDIT - ok looks like you got it sorted so I have removed the file I posted too
