EASY outline "contour" tool tip just discovered!

[rpc9943]

Interesting, since I work full time with xara at my job, just hit upon this really easy way to outline contour WITHOUT a need to change step!

Another huge thing is that this can be used on 3D (looks like that toon shading effect), bevelled, or even an extra outline on a contour!
It can *also* be used if you want to auto OUTLINE an image with alpha!

Simply:
1. Select any vector object with shadow tool
2. Choose the "glow" button
3. Bring transparency and blur all the way down (0%)
4. Drag on screen to change the outline thickness

EASY + COOL!

The only con I can see is that you can't apply a shadow to this object... But that's really not that bad a deal
I think this setting should be a -separate tool button- for new users, and renamed to "outline", and allowing a shadow layer beneath to be applied.

If this has already been mentioned and used, sorry :P

you can apply a shadow to it if you group it with itself [just select it and ctrl+g]...
