    Default Drawing an box with a 2 pt line no fill

    After years of looking after a number of websites I’ve finally had time to delve into the drawing portion of Xara. It’s why I love the program so much. With some spare time you can work on another layer.

    Question. Is there a fast way to draw an unfilled square, with a 2 point line. I’ve been drawing a filled square with a 2 point line, then checking unfilled. Also using the straight line tool drawing 4 sides, then grouping.

    Thanks all. Enjoy your weekend.

    Prep up one such shape off-page.
    Copy it then select the current shape and Paste Attributes (Shift+Ctrl+A).
    Repeat and re-use.

    That's doing things twice, Acorn.

    true, but then setting the program to gnomra can cause extra work too if you don't want attributes reset on the hoof
