    Default Maybe a new and useful tool for Xara

    I constantly need to draw parallel curved lines and have yet to find an easy way in Xara. I have 3D modelling program that has a spline generating tool called 'outline' which draws another spline parallel to the existing one.

    Something like this would I think really add to Xara.

    If I'm missing something, please put me right!

    Welcome to TalkGraphics Alan

    There is the Contour Tool. And you can also Convert a Line to Shape, then break it apart with the Shape Editor Tool to achieve a similar effect.

    "Arrange > Convert line to shape" does that.
