Any way to do light effects?

[YAOMTC]

GIMP does it, but their light effects feature is pretty glitchy, so... Is there some way of making a light effect in XaraLX? I want to make a light shine on some beveled text I have, if possible.

umm... can you show a picture of what you mean?

Here's a light effect I did in GIMP a while back. (As you can see, there's a glitchy vertical line down the lit up letters.)

Please can you add the picture as an attachment. If you're not sure how, read this thread
