    No reason why you can't use a blend step but Xara only allows one Base colour & two darker & lighter shades.

    Chris, with XWD(P) you can still manipulate Blends created elsewhere (XPDX).

    Ctrl+select an end shape and alter its colour:

    I get it, but I think it's one of those things where I'm not creative or art orientated enough for it to fit into my world. Same way as I don't know how to hold a golf bat correctly, I don't venture into those areas.

    Wow, Australia must be cool - golf bats flying in sub-tropical and temperate rain-forests. If rabid, you should be using a thick arm-length glove. I assume the bats are almost hunted to extinction, what with the sought-after bits being their gonads.

    Copy/paste from Wikipedia Down Under:

    "The Australian Golf Bat: A vampiric member of the Chiroptera species thought to have been introduced by Hungarian settlers in 900BC. They are widely hunted for their eggs which they keep tucked inside their ears during incubation. Sometime in the 17th century, Australians changed the traditional hunting weapon from the boomerang to the snooker stick."
