    Tip from Ivan Louette

    Another partly hidden feature in XaraX !
    Here are the steps:

    1 clone each object you will put into your blend
    2 give no fill and no outline to the clones
    3 move the clones to back
    4 group each object with its own clone
    5 blend your objects toghether with your mouse
    6 fit your blend on the curve
    7 hold down Ctrl key and click on the object you would offset from the curve (in fact only one of the two grouped objects is selected).
    8 now you can move it freely with your arrow keys or your mouse !!!

    Here I have positioned one object inside my oval and the other outside to create this semi-spiral.
