    Default Red Sedan

    Hi everybody,
    having worked with Jasc PSP 7 for 4 years now, I just tested Xara Xtreme.
    In my eyes so far, best features are speed, transparency and feathering, what's lacking is a way to select and hide single shapes within a layer.
    Anyway, I'm rather happy with my first drawing, Stalin's personal car, a Russian 1936 ZiS-101.
    Regards from Germany,

    Hello Oliver,

    Welcome to Talkgraphics.

    Great drawing with excellent detail and lighting.

    You obviously have made great progress toward learning Xara Xtreme.

    what's lacking is a way to select and hide single shapes within a layer
    Make all layers unselectable. Enable the target layer and make it the active layer. Click on the object you want. Or click a convenient object then use the Tab key to change the selection to each object on the layer in turn.

    There are other ways and I'm sure others will be happy to assist and share their choice of method.

    That's a beauty, Oliver,
    the paintjob gives it a broody, sombre quality;
    somehow menacing, giving one a sense of foreboding.
    Would look good on a background of a moonlit cemetary.
    Creepy.
    ps: Red Sedan MK II coming shortly.
    Saludos,
    Bob.

    The look of that sedan sure goes with the look of Stalin. Great job Oliver.
