How do you make this imagestransparent i.e there is no background colour?

[handrawn]

theres a transparent option in the export dialog box that should be ticked

nice to see the result

What result?

Jinz, that cool effect I think is the pulse animation.

Help please?????

size mismatch

in your last image at the right you will see size [and angle] adjustment for texture in xara3D

however this is really for fine tuning

first you need to reduce the size of your shape - this is done with the font size on the top tool bar

this will of course result in a smaller size animation

the alternative is to use a larger sized texture image - if you have one with good definition

PS - those posted images a bit too big to see easily - better to limit them to 600/650pix wide

PPS - export it as a true color + alpha png - I just noticed you exported it true color only - the white background may be taken into account when the texture is laid onto the shape

Good 'splainin', Steve.

Adjustments shouldn't be all that necessary if the original bitmap exported and the original vector shape you made from that bitmap are the same size.

Jinz, it's great to see you working hard at this. Once you get it down you will love how both Xara Xtreme and 3D6 work so well together and how you can produce amazing results.

Jinz - I second what Bob says - looking good
