Xara :: Get Outline Of Object To Take On Graduated Fill?

Apr 21, 2012

I have Designer Pro 7. Is there a way to get the outline of an object to take on the graduated fill transparency of an object? The line goes transparent with the object's fill when a linear transparency is applied, but remains opaque with a graduated one. I understand that I could turn the outline into an object and then apply the transparency but if I have to edit the object later, I would have to repeat the process.

Photoshop :: How Can I Use The Outline Of One Layer To Use As A Border To Others?

Aug 15, 2007

Im trying to vector a face.. I have traced the face exactly and filled it with a base colour.. now im going to layer the skin.. however.. i dont want to retrace the outlines of the face every time a layer is close to the border.. I want to be able to exceed the face outline with that layer.. and then use the base colour layer (that is exactly traced) to clip that layer so it has the same outline as the traced base layer.. that way I dont have to trace my layers every time I get close to the edge..

GIMP :: Use Function To Outline Border To Text

Feb 12, 2013

I am trying to use the function to outline a border to text with the function "Path to text" but no matter how I try the path will only use 16-19 letters in one row.

I have read several guides on how to do this and no one mention anything about this issue. As long as I have 16 letters on one line it works, but I have more it will just skip them.

I write the text:

12345678901234567890

Then I click an choose "path to text", but when I do it will only create a path of 1234567890123456 and skip the rest. If I write text on several rows it will use up to 16 letter on each row.

Is there an limit to "Path to text" .

CorelDRAW X6 :: Update Outline Width After Resizing Object If Scale With Object Selected

Dec 14, 2013

Resizing objects is a mess in CorelDRAW X6 when objects are outlined with Scale With Object enabled to retain proportions after resizing.

None of the tools dealing with outlines (e.g. Contour or even Outline itself) continue to work properly after resizing the object.

I strongly suggest to recalculate outline property values after resizing if Scale With Object is checked. Don't just do it hidden somewhere internally in the object model by applying a temporary scaling factor. Instead actually recalculate the actual property values if Scale With Object is checked.

Xara :: Background Within Border Only?

Using Xara 3D I would like the background colour to remain within the border only so that the final logo is the border and text within, not a rectangle of colour containing the border and text. I cannot find a way to do this...

Xara :: Create Shape With Partial Outline?

Sep 20, 2011

I've been using Xara Photo and Graphic designer for about a week now to design some characters for a game I'm working on and in general find it great to use as a freehand authoring tool.

In order to develop a cartoon style, I'm building my characters out of free hand coloured objects with black outlines with cel shading made from partial masked clones of the objects. This works a treat until I come to put two of the objects together and want to erase part of the outline on the topmost object where it meets the underlying one.

I thought I'd found a solution with a tip on the Xara site (at the top of the page here) where you draw the outline portion you want and combine with a second object then break the objects again. This pretty much achieves what I want, I get a filled object with the outline broken where I originally left it, however, things start to go wrong when you attempt to mask clone a part of the object you've created (for example, to produce a shaded portion of the underlying object) as it's still a line and not a shape, so the mask clone gets confused and doesn't cut out the intended area.

This must be a pretty regular requirement, particularly for people creating flash animations, so I'm sure I must be missing something or going about the construction of the image in the wrong way.

Xara :: Outline Art And Color With Photoshop Elements?

Sep 26, 2011

I'm creating an image using characters from known brand, and I have to match the colors exactly. In Photoshop Elements, I can use the Color Picker to obtain colors directly from an image online. I'm not sure I can do that with Xara. But Elements doesn't have a vector pen, which Xara does, so what I'd like to do is outline my images using Xara and color them in with Elements.

Can I do that? Will there be any "technical difficulties"?

Xara :: How To Draw Inner Stroke / Outline Around Rectangle

Jul 2, 2012

How do I draw an stroke/line around an rectangle shape and let it be "INSIDE of the rectangle". Like in Photoshop in the stroke layer effects.

What I have so far: I am aware of the "line" option. BUT it paints the stroke OUTSIDE of the rectangle and extends its size. This is NOT what I would like to have.

Xara :: PNG Image With No Background / Outline Is Not Smooth

Sep 8, 2013

how a png image sometimes has a checkerboard background instead of a dull white square background?Those png's are cool to import into Xara and have a smooth outline.

why is it when i EXPORT a png with the checkerboard background the outline looks like an 8 bit nintendo outline when placed on a website? These type of pngs with the checkerboard background are meant to be viewed as having no background...which actually works for me but the outline looks horrible.

what do i need to do to fix that outline issue? Is there some sort of setting that i have to tweak?

Xara :: Create Outline Path In Designer Pro?

Jan 14, 2013

I have used Xara designer for years as its generally easier to use, but still can't work out hot to easily create the Outline Path and the pathfnder merge shapes function as in Illustrator. The idea is to have a block of text with an outline round the outside of the whole text, but separated from the text characters.

In illustrator the sequence is:

Write text and select then create outlines

Then Object, Path, Outline Path.

Then using the pathfinder utility, merge the outlines into one.

In Xara Designer, I can change text to shapes, but not generate an outline other than a line that hugs each character.

Xara :: How To Create Frayed Border Of Bitmap

Xara :: Odd Border Inside Exported Images?

Jul 8, 2011

Open Xara Designer 7 for Windows - demo version.

1) Create a solid block of colour at an integer coordinate (say 0,0).

2) Make it an integer width and height (say 128 x 128)

3) Export

4) Choose '.png' (or '.jpg' - the same effect will manifest)

5) Zoom into the preview and see the weird discoloured edges produced

Alternatively, do the same thing with 'Create Bitmap Copy' and observe the same results.

I'm aware that if you have non-integer sizes/positions it anti-aliases, but this isn't supposed to happen if you rectify these.

[Edit: I think I found out what it was: on my Pro version, I have the option to minimise anti-aliasing, which might well be the issue. Oddly, I can't reproduce the problem at all on my Pro version, but only on my brother's demo version!]

Xara :: Two Separate Lines Of Text Surrounded By A Black Outline

Jan 28, 2011

I am using Xara's Photo & Graphic Designer for the first time and slowly getting acclimated to the program after using Ulead's Photo Impact for 6 years.

Just one really basic question. I have three elements in my final design: two seperate lines of text surrounded by a black outline. To save this as a single graphic (.gif format), what do I need to do? With Ulead all I had to do was select all, right click and select merge as one, then simply save in whatever format I wanted to the destination of my choosing.

Is there a similar "merge as one" command in Xara or do I select each element in my graphic, then choose save from the file menu?
