    Default Degenerate Bevel

    Dear Xara...

    I have a Line to which I have added a Flat bevel.
    For the Bevel, I then applied a Repeating Fill.

    If I then change the Line Width to 0pt or None, I get a collection of bevel blobs along the line.
    Fortunately, if I change the Line Width to 1mp or greater, the Bevel remains intact.
    I simply wanted to hide the line itself.

    Well here is my interpretation off the effect:
    Draw a line of 1px then do "Ctrl+K" change that to line width (say 5px) move to rear..(change color if ya want) then blend the back line to front line..
    I hope I understood the idea LOL

    Top marks for the effort of reporting this Acorn.

    I also had to have a go too and experienced a similar result, but just thought "that's a bit weird, oh well, that didn't work".

    I also picked a error copy and pasting the attributes of a line with a bevel and repeating fill applied to it, to another line.

    Cheers Jono, I think the internal program error 956.k.at.pl is related to adding colours to a line when bevelled: Set Line Colour vs. Set Fill Handle Colour.
    Just another Bug.
