View 5 RepliesI know that extruding a sphere in Extrude tool is not possible, but like to play with it and not giving up.
As experience so far, starting from a circle a 208-210 extrude depth with 999 Curved bevel type, that gives something around like an apple.

Ive found a way to create a border, just adding the 3d extrude tool, and it works quite well, however adding a drop shadow to the image looks cool to. I have exported the image as a jpg, however on my siote there is this white background. How do I lose this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedMany times this has happened to me and I have never been able to figure it out. How do I remove a 3D extrude? I had almost finished a new project and was attempting to 3D extrude part of it when the program crashed now I am stuck with parts etruded and I can't seem to remove those parts. Unfortunately the part I am concerned about was difficult to do because it was an experiment text wrapping an object. Maybe I can open one of my saves and get it back that way. I don't know because I only just now thought of that possibility. Never the less I still want to know.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHave a look on the attached picture, in Extrude tool is there possibility to change the color of the depth dimension? My target would be just a simple brown, however also good question can be added bitmap fill on the sides? But if that would be brown instead of the current gray, that is absolutely okay for my targets, as I can see sure there is no line applied on the object so that should be controlled somewhere else

I'm thinking of buying Xara Designer Pro.
I can't seem to find any info about extruding shapes that are in PNG format etc.
For example, if I have a star shape in a PNG file (or BMP etc) is it possible to extrude it in Designer Pro? If the image file needs to be converted to another format
While working on a drawing the file would not save (message - failed to save), then Xara DP7 crashed. The file disapeared from my hard drive. I restored the file with a utility. Now when I try to open file it says - Failed to read XAR file, Failed to read record buffer.

Going thru the Getting Started tutorial. When I started doing the "Drawing a Polygon" lesson everything was cool 'til I tried to extrude the bottom part of the helmet. I select Edit Mesh> Extrude, but the extrude arrow/handles don't show up on the polygon. I tried to Modify the Tranformation Tools, but as you can see in the screen shot, there isn't really anything to modify. Tried to reset it. Nothing. Tried to go in the Preferences, but I don't know what to set, if anything. I tried to turn of the Construction History, but I don't even see that icon. Tried to reinstall Maya. No improvement.
I have created a path with the pen tool (the brown part), and now I want to extrude it, but it extrudes the whole containing block (See image below)
Now I have tried everything, from grouping to compound paths etc, but nothing works.
How do I extrude my path?
Extrude manipulator tool will not show up when I try to extrude. I don't know how to turn on the construction history either.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Xara Designer Pro 7, when I have selector tool active and want to drag over a number of elements to select them the selector tool will change the size of the canvas (page). Is that not a bug? I used this way of selecting elements often, and it is not good for me with this new behaviour.
Is it a bug or is it a new setting which I then need to change?
This occurs when:
I use the Curves Toolbox (I invoke this command thru the shortcut Ctrl + M) and select the grey eyedropper to color correct my image. It crashes immediately upon clicking with the eyedropper to select my source color. When I am using the Brush tool in Color mode and I hit "option" to invoke the eyedropper it will crash as soon as I choose my source color.
Here is a link to the text in the crash report:

Ah well! back to a JASC version of PSP 9 that does actually work for more than part time use.
I'm having troubles using Photoshop CS6 (64-bit) on Windows 7 (x64). After deselecting the move tool, or any tool that has move capabilities, such as the various transform tools, Photoshop crashes to the desktop.
I have reset all preferences by holding CTRL + ALT + SHIFT while starting Photoshop and by manually deleting the preferences files. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop in its entirety. These attempts to solve the issue didn't change anything regarding the crashing. I am using the latest drivers for my graphics cards.
When I am using the eraser tool in correldraw x5, I get a crash from time to time.
This crash causes my correldraw to completely shutdown with a message that an unexpected error has occured and that the program had to be closed.
Working with important information, this is a big issue for me.
I often get a crash after using the ViewCube tool to pick front view while in top view (today I was in tilemode 1, in a fairly simple 3D drawing).

The Photoshop 6 beta program froze while using the crop tool on an image size of 8052x5368. I tried to save a file in another program while waiting for the crop to finish (usually about 1 second) and got an out-of-memory error. I checked the D: driv where the file in the other program was saved.
I have a flash C: drive and is not selected in the scratch disk preference. Two scratch disks, E: and G:, are selected with a total of about 800GB free space.

I work with larger files and anticipate this problem again.How can I trap information for Adobe next time?

I'm using Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 6 and I'm having fun with it. But there's one functionality I can't seem to find that I really need. I'm a CAD operator (and have that mentality), and I really want my AutoCAD Offset tool. It allows you to copy a line or shape a certain distance away. More importantly, if you "offset" a shape inside or outside it's boundary, it automatically makes the new shape equidistant from all the borders.
Anyway to do it in Xara P&GD6?
In Xara P+Designer 6 I can select an area to clone, then edit that selection with the Selector Tool.
I don't seem to manage that in XD 7 doing the identical thing, well, attempting to. Am I not doing something that I should be doing, for it to do the same as in Xara D6?
I can edit with the Shape Editor tool, but not rotate with the Selector Tool.
I don't know how to use efficiently the mold tool ( not a lot of tutorials about it ) .
Maybe it's not possible in Xara but here is an example from an artist's work where the text ( and picture ) fits very well on the page :
I'd like to use the same effect ( or a little better than I usually do ) on some personal works but :
Could be better ... I'm sure I don't know to use well mold tool, though ...
There was a fix to put the old bezier pen tool (the Shift+F5 one) back in XD Pro 7, which I can't seem to find. what it was, and if it still works for XD Pro X?
View 5 Replies View Relatedhow useful the mask tool is! I've been exploring it. It's perfect for working on things like erasing edges of lines, splitting objects, you name it! It's so much better than the older method of having to make objects on top of an object or whatever..

I know there is a general way to do this but it seems to elude me at the moment. I go to the button palette and can use the tool from there but would prefer that is was on the side bar.
When I click on an object corner point, and try to resize it, I get the 4 way arrows (not the diagonal double arrow bar) and the resizing does not keep the aspect. Is it a setting or a bug.

Is there a tool to correct the colors of shapes in a group in Designer Pro x?
I mean something that can change contrast, brightness and saturation of all colors in the group at once.
For now I use the bitmap filter "Enhance" but sadly the outlines become jaggy by this.
