[chr1s]

Hi there,

I'm a Xara newbie and using Xara Xtreme 0.7 linux version (Ubuntu)

I've been trying to bend a textline in a semi circle but didn't succeed...can anyone of you tell me how to do this?

Thanx a lot,
cheers

Hi Chris... everybody asks this... and, of course, it can be done...
to find your answer, please use search link for this forum, and type
in "text curve" or similar... lots and lots of posts and answers.

does this apply in the linux version? - I can't remember, dont have linux running at present

(I have no idea. I use the Windows version. I was hoping it might apply.)

If memory serves me the Linux version works the same as the Windows version for fit text to curve.

I cannot verify this as I no longer have Linux installed on any of my computers.

works on linux exactly as -=Drifter=- (gamer by any chance? described.
