Affinity Designer Shape Builder Tool

That's dynamic effects for you.

CorelDRAW and Illustrator can extrude objects; text, whatever...and when "degraded", made uneditable as the original shape, they're still a collection of vectors. To be fair, Xara bought the 3D engine, it's not pure Xara programming.

Still, if something's possible, I'd expect Xara of all toolmakers to be able to do it and do it better than the competition. Xara prompted Adobe, corel, and god knows who else to imitate the screen anti-aliasing, and then transparency with stops.

In the USA, boxing matches have a maximum of 12 rounds. I wonder if the House might adopt the same.

maybe it should be a knockout competition

nice looking mouse but I prefer my mouse functions minimal; I have a habit of moving my mouse around 'idly' whilst thinking, things might 'happen' - bad enough xara's right click duplication
