I have been trying out Xara 3D - great programme.
I create my first animated image and set it to loop the animation 99 times
If I go away from the web page I put it on and come back (before it could have done 99 loops) it seems to freeze, and refreshing the page does nothing to re-animate it.
It's here at [link removed] in the top right hand corner
What might be stopping the animation and how do I fix it?
why the create animated sequence (Make Preview) will often times freeze and get stuck on one frame even though the time is progressing? Quite often when I create my previews, it will progress to a certain point and the frame won’t progress and it will continue to create the same frame over and over even though the time slider is progressing through the animation. I’m using Max 2011 and 2012 but this has happened in 2009 and 2010. To fix it I have to keep a close eye on the sequence images and stop the preview to restart it at the point it stopped.

I've included a URL to a screen grab that shows how the artwork falls off the desired background. And so effects what gets printed ... I think.
What is the normal way to cause the printed product to cut off at the desired edge?
In this case the blue noisy bkg is the exact size of what is supposed to get printed.
I can't get the text to repel under my graphic. I took the attached out of a much larger web page, it behaves here just like it does on the other document - that is the text won't repel. I must be missing something, usually this works perfectly for me, but for some reason it isn't here.

View 8 Replies View RelatedIn 2007, several forum posts showed a photo of a cat transformed into a line drawing of the cat what I refer to as a "stylized" drawing. URL....
Since I haven't used filters before, I couldn't follow whether the result was obtained with Xara features or was done with some third-party tools.
is there a method in X9 that can render a photo into a stylized line drawing? URL....
I am currently working on a video (hi-def, 1080x1920, 16x9 screen size). I want to add two different graphic elements at different points in the video (amateur home stuff). The first item is a graphic to be used as a static background picture via a green screen technique. The second item is an animation with an alpha channel to overlay a video scene. Both items will be created using Xara. My question is: How big do I make the document & animation so that they will fit seamlessly into the above video? Do I work with a document size of 16x9 inches or 1080x1920 pixels? I realize this is probably a simple question. But I need you experts to weigh in.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat I'm trying to accomplish is to have an animated blog title. As an example, please have a look at the header of this blog of mine:
[URL].......
As you can see, the header is rather boring. What I'm trying to accomplish is to animate the letters of the header title "Heartgard For Dogs" the one at the very top in yellow.
I have "Xara 3D Maker 7" and "Xara Designer Pro 6".
Not sure which one will accomplish what I'm trying to do.
I noticed that animated gif that I put into other web builders load fine, show cleanly.Yet when put into XDP6, the same graphics get a ghosting effect.In other words, after letters have cleared the screen, a remaining unintended outline remains. The graphics are clean in previews, viewing directly, using other web builders, or on other sites built with other software.
Today I visited the New Features page for X3D7 and had the same issue with the gif on that page too. (attached screenshot for reference)I am using win7/64bit, 8gb ram, hi-speed internet connection, don't have anything set in the browser and no browser "helper" that is adjusting image quality. This problem is only seen in Internet Explorer, not Firefox.Is there a setting in XDP that needs to be adjusted so this doesn't happen?
Are there any plans to have Xara products export to APNG (animated PNG) which may replace animated GIF format since Firefox will be supporting it?

The Xara a/w looks perfect but when I view the .PDF convertion it has added squares with a cross inside to several of the foriegn languages where there should be spaces. I've tried varying the .pdf convertor set-ups but to no avail.

It is there in the directory, and I can see it in xara 6 as well. But I go to use it and it says it isn't installed and that I should install from help menu.
I have tried so many tings and recently I tried changing the permissions, still no go.
It's weird cause I also own Xara Web designer 6 and they open in that program fine...
I have tried three times today to download both Xara Designer Pro 7 and Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 7 from both the US and English web pages. In all cases, all I get is a small 3.5 mb file. When I click on the file, i get a spinning astrix that spins for 5 minutes then times out.
I was going to buy Xara Designer Pro 7 upgrade tonight, but since this happened, I'm holding off till I know that the software works on my system

I have drawn a colorful graphic with lots of little pieces, colors. Didn't name colors in it or built it with tints/shades of other colors. I want to make it grayscale now. What is fastest/most practical way to do that? Histogram works on bitmaps but I would like to retain vector format.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI created this simple graphic with a mix of the straight line tool and the shape tool. Any color I drag on to any panel of this hat only changes the background color. I've made sure that all these lines have snapped to the appropriate edges and have tried many combinations of joining shapes and converting to shapes, etc...
I have noticed the vectors don't seem to work the same so I'm not sure this is even possible.
I am trying to make a simple wallpaper. I check everything carefully. Make the page 1280 x 800. Make sure the alignment is ok by inserting measurements in the boxes - ie not dragging. Make sure no object is secretly sticking out a bit. I have deleted the page's shadow. But no matter what I do I find there is a white box around the wallpaper I export. Can't figure out why, and can't get rid of it. I have also noticed that sometimes, even though I have set all objects to have a 0 point - ie be butted up against the page - their measurement suddenly will show 7px or such like and it will spring back into misalignment.
I just want to make a simple 1280 x 800 wallpaper for a client, something very easy.
Is there a way to create a .avi file in Photo & Graphic Designer 7?
I want to create an animation (not an animated .gif) that I can then include in a movie. I see how to set the properties for an AVI file but when I try to export the animation, I do not see the otption to save my file as a .avi. Am I missing something or is there a better alternative for creating an animation that can be included in a movie file?
I used Graphics & Photos 2013, I update the software yesterday and if I save my job as PDF, the transparency done on a picture is inverted.Currently I removed the transparency but it is not the solution.Issue appear only when I create a PDF file. By creating a JPG file it works.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if Xara supports layers in the same way as my other graphics programs. I am able to bring a bitmap into a layer over another bitmap layer and by applying a particular mode, lets say Overlay or Soft Light, it will change the appearance of the new layer. By doing this I build up new designs for digital papers.

These are files that I purchased and downloaded, and presumably they should not have errors. I don't have other software that is meant to open EPS files, so I cannot verify personally, but I do have reason to assume they are valid files. I saw this post that mentioned the same type of problem -

is there a way to Deactivate update check in Xara photo graphic designer 9. Has Xara reg2.5 such function? Did look in settings and xara reg 2.5 but nothing found.
On each start of the program I have the update check what does take time...
I am working on a graphic design project - a print publication for a client. The original Word document that is the basis for the report contains footnotes. Insofar as I am able to do so, I would like to retain my client's structure, including the footnotes. Is this feasible with P&GD 6 or version 7? I cannot find any reference to "footnote" in the help provided with my installation.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhy the PDF manual that comes on the Xara CD cannot be read on my iPad2. I have tried both Ibooks and GoodREader. Images and pages display, but the text is rendered as blurry black smudges. It's such a shame since I like to have my documentation beside my screens and use my monitors for palettes and the main window. Is it a problem with my copy and is there a way to get a working PDF?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI wonder if PaGD7 could be used for a short, letter-sized 48 page grayscale booklet with two column text and images on nearly every page (at 300DPI) and multiple fonts. Can the software handle this or I would be asking too much out of it?
I seem unable to find an automatic page numbering option, which would be necessary for a print publication. All other needed functions, including accurate kerning and baseline controls are there. I found some old mentions of auto page numbering in old threads but no positive answer. It would be a nice feature to have, assuming the program can handle such filesizes.
I know how to go in to my settings and change the default page settings on a new design, but I want my settings to ALWAYS come up with the settings I change them to. How do I set these so that every time I start Xara I don't have to go change the settings AGAIN?
