    Hopefully it's just an odd error. Try closing Xara down, and reopening it. Load your file again and see if it still happens. Intersect shapes is a fairly straight forward operation for Xara. Let's know how you get on.

    well closed my machine down and restarted and then tried again and it did it!...bit drastic approach but it worked... I then tried it again and xra went into not repsonding...so shut down and started aagain...did it again..so have got my photo in a circle... but dont understand why Xara did this .. am running in x64 would that make any difference?

    What did the error message mean and Xara often goes into not responding mode... just takes ages to do things with stopping and starting

    but pleased I now have my photo...

    Very strange MSD. Xara does kick up the odd error message. I can only suggest you send your xar file to support, as only they know the meaning of these error messages.
