Xara :: How To Add Highlight Lines To Stretchable Button

Jun 12, 2013

I'd like to have a custom set of stretchable buttons as my starter set for new projects.

As shown by the attached (zoomed) screen capture, when I add a highlight line and stretch the button, the line no longer follows the rounded corner shape. I've exaggerated th highlight line for this example. The line on the Xara template button uses a solid gray line all round, which isn't useful to me. Ideally, the line would be two colors with proper transitions at the corners.

Corel Ventura :: Select / Highlight Multiple Lines

Jul 25, 2012

Just want to ask if there's a script command or syntax in Ventura 8 to highlight and select multiple lines?There is a marker/paragraph tag to mark the beginning of the first line to be highlighted and selected, and also another marker/paragraph tag to mark the end.

Sample here...

line 1line 2line 3begin_select lineline4line5line6line7end_select lineline 8line 9line 10

Well, above is just simplified document sample. The main goal is to have a script to select multiples lines that will start from the marker "begin_select line" and selection/highlight will terminate at marker "end_select line". Thus, giving the output of highlighting and selecting multiple lines which are line4 up to line7.

AutoCAD Dynamic Blocks :: Stretchable Window Frame To All Directions?

Jun 10, 2013

I'm trying to do a dynamic block of a stretchable window frame. One that isn't a rectangle. It could be stretched from 3 corners to all directions. The fourth corner being the base point.

The frame would consist of 2 "rectangles", with a 20millimeter gap between the lines. The problem is that i haven't figured out any way to to keep the distance between the lines constant as the corners are stretched.

I have tried using variations of Polar and XY-parameters with Strecth-actions with no luck.

Xara :: How To Create 3D Shiny Round Button

Jan 24, 2012

These are a pair of video tutorials that I did some time ago. They are intended for beginners but you never know what you might learn. The first tutorial is for how to draw a round button and the second is for how to turn it into a web button. They are related so that is why I posted both of them together here.

Xara :: Button Text Keeps Moving From The Center?

Mar 16, 2012

I've noticed something keeps happening: when I bring a button in from the design gallery and I change the text on the button from "button" to "click here" or whatever, the text is no longer centered in the button. When I check the Mouse-Over layer, the text is also misaligned. When I go to center the text on one layer, it then gets misaligned on the other!

The only way I've found around it is to make the button in a new document and then cut & paste it into the web page.

Xara :: Change Button Color Without Losing 3D Effect?

Aug 20, 2012

I'm using Photo & Graphic Designer 2013. I notice that the buttons are now under the Page Elements menu. I'm trying to figure out how to change the button color without losing the 3D effect. The Help says:

�Change the color by clicking on the appropriate colors on the left end of the Color Line and choosing 'edit'

if I just highlight the button and change the color, it turns the button into a flat color.

Xara :: XPDG MX 2013 - Why Doesn't Live Effects Button Bring Anything Up

May 9, 2013

As I'm trying to learn more of my new programs, I finally came across a tutorial that covered the Live Effects. However, after I've open and created an object (star)(that's another story), I go to the Live Effects button (per the tutorial) but nothing opens. Left click, right click, nothing brings anything up.

Also, in the tutorial it started by drawing the star object...click the icon draw a star, and I get a 6-sided filled object. No star to be found. The oval and rectangular objects draw fine. But no star obect.

I'm at the point where I don't know what should or shouldn't be somewhere or if something is or isn't working. I understand that the Live Effects can be pointed to an external folder where 3rd-party plugins should go, but I was also getting the feeling that something came with the program install (per the tutorial). I've gotten used to things not working in these Xara and Magix programs I purchased, so unlike my first couple of posts, the anger and frustration are being left out.

Xara :: Combine 2 Lines Together?

Aug 1, 2013

I've not used Xara in ages and can't remember how (or even if it's possible) to join two lines together. I was using the freehand tool with trace mode enabled to roughlty trace around an object in a jpeg image so I zoomed in on the object in the image I wanted to trace to get better precision. This meant the image was larger than my monitor and I had to trace a bit, press space bar, pan a bit, press space bar to get back to freehand tool, move over end of line to get little '+' sign to continue drawing existing line etc. But on one of the times I must have not got the '+' so was actually drawing a new line and not a continuation of the existing - hence need to get these 2 to join together.

Xara :: How To Create A String Of Lines End To End

Dec 31, 2012

The very first thing any CAD program can do is be able to create a series of lines, connected end to end, on the fly, by starting each line snapped to the end of the last line.

I cannot see how to do this very basic procedure. Perhaps I'm missing something (). I can see how you can make 2 lines separately, then move one to snap to the other, but this seems awfully crude for a program like Xara.

Xara :: How To Create Lines Around A Group

Jul 9, 2011

Is there an easy way that I am missing to create lines around a group? For example, when I want a rectangle with rounded corners on only one side, I usually just make 2 separate rectangles, one with rounded corners, one square, then group them together. However, when you put a line around it it also makes a lines where the two meet each other. I have always worked around it by adding another square rectangle between the 2 with no lines, to cover up the lines. Am I missing something obvious?

Xara :: Linear Transparency Not Affecting Lines

Jan 26, 2011

When I apply simple flat transparency to a line, or a shape with an outline, it becomes translucent - as expected.

But when I apply a linear (or circular / elliptical / conical etc) transparency, only the fill is affected, and the line remains opaque

Xara :: Creating Glowing Lines Effect

Jun 12, 2013

I have looked everywhere at all sorts of photoshop and illustrator tutorials (because I couldn't find a Xara one) to accomplish this effect. I am creating a website for my client Jim and would like to incorporate a similar image to what he's using on his book cover, but with some different colors as the background to his site.

You can see what I'm trying to do in his blog header background here: [URL]......

I've found that this is a stock photo used in a lot of places, but I'm not really interested in getting the original image - I have that, but as a Jpeg on a black background. I'd prefer to learn how to create a similar effect in Xara.

I have tried all sorts of things that are kind of close, but just not there yet. I've tried using a line with pen pressure with a glow shadow. I've tried lines with a stained glass color overlay. I've tried creating a number of different brushes with a few levels of color, some with Gaussian blur applied, etc. but I just can't get this effect down. It always looks pretty good when I'm done, but then I look at the inspirational original and I'm not even in the ballpark for the amount of shine, glow, impact, etc.

In the end, this may not even work for the site since will be putting it on a light colored background, but I still want to know how to create this, as I'm sure I'll be able to use the technique elsewhere.

Xara :: Best Way To Radius Corner Where Two Lines Meet?

Nov 3, 2011

What is the best way to radius a corner?

i.e. I have two lines: one is horizontal, and in this case the other is at 45 degrees, and at the point where the join I want to create an exact radius. So that one line curves into the other, following an exact arc.

What is the easiest/best way to create this?

Xara :: Joining 2 Lines Together And Retain Original Paths

Sep 6, 2011

I wanted to join 2 lines together (i.e. end up with a single line). I know that you can join lines by selecting both then using any of the shape / line / brush tools to drag one node from line A over to the a node on line B (you get a little + symbol next to the mouse cursor once the lines can join).

This is fine is you want the final line shape to differ from the original 2, but what if you want to join 2 lines and retain the original paths?

I can do it by postioning the target nodes on eash of the lines almost but not quite touching then using the above technique but its a bit awkward and I suspect this isn't the best way to go about it.

Xara :: Parts Of Lines Disappear At Different Zoom Level

Jul 14, 2012

Been using Xara Xtreme Pro 5 for several years and this is an issue that happens now. Parts of lines disappear in a drawing at different zoom levels. The drawing might look perfect at one zoom level, but if I zoom in from say 100% to 500% parts of lines disappear from the drawing. The fix is usually having to click on the line or zoom to a different %. I have attached a picture to show the issue. The hat on the left shows the missing part of the line (circled in red), and the hat on the right shows how the line actually is.

If this was happening in a pc game I would describe it as clipping. I'm on a Pentium 4 PC 3 GHz, Win XP SP 3 2 gigs of RAM. GeForce 6200 if this comes into play .

Xara :: Slicing Shapes Leaves Transparent Lines

Apr 11, 2013

I've got a problem with the combine shapes > slice (cut) shapes. (Designer Pro X).

I often use this tool to cut a graphic to make a repeating object, so I don't want it to have any boarder, just solid color. But for some reason when I cut the shape xara puts a little (approx 1 pixel) transparent line where the shape has been cut. This is often added to exported to the edges of pngs and svgs and looks a bit like anti-aliasing of some sort but I don't want this, just a solid object.

How to avoid this? See my attachment for an example png that I created by simply slicing one rectangle from another, I want to be able to do this without the extra line appearing - ie just solid black.
