Xara :: Square - Blurred Edge Disappearing
Sep 10, 2013
I have installed recently the XDPx9 as an upgarde from V8. Now I am facing the folling issue:
Every time I will make blurred edges to a square, this square disappears completely. As long as it is not blurred there is no issue. Strange is, that this phenomena only happens to a square and not to any other shape. I tried several set-ups but all resulted in same issue. The pics attached. Means: Once a square has sharp edges, it is visible in the work-view as well as in the pre-view. Once it has blurred edges, it is still visible in the work-view but disappears in the pre-view. (Even in the browser view it has been disappeared)

so user error is not unlikely, but I have a small animation with 11 small circles that animate opacity and Y pos. The circles are all symbols and are being controlled (play/stop) from the main timeline. When I preview, half of them do not show up. The symbols that don't appear are consistent from preview to preview. I've looked at the Elements in the browser and they are there, they just aren't animating.
So I thought I would just recreate the "bad" symbols and their animations, but they are still not animating in my preview. When I play the timeline in Edge Animate evrything is fine.
I've tried it in Chrome, Safari and Firefox (all latest releases) with the same result.
Is there a symbol bug in Edge? Is there a method of creating symbols that I should be using (other than draw, cmd-Y and edit symbol timeline)?

The website is run on WordPress, and so I did not design the site in Xara. However, I designed the graphics. I had them all in one Xara file. Today, I wanted to add more mouseovers. You can see the ones I have by hovering over the right-hand side of the page. There were 5 or so pages in the file with a variety of ideas and small graphics that I exported to png files and uploaded to the site.
When I opened the file, it had only 1 blank page. I was horrified. I noticed that the latest and greatest Xara is a bit quirky, compared to the previous 2 versions.

I create a square, 300px by 300px. I duplicate the square, resize to 200px by 200px. Highlight both, press Ctrl-F4 and remove the inside box. What I have left looks like a picture frame. Is there a way to shadow the inside area? (the part I cut out)

I created a photo at the bigging of the timeline to be scaled at 0,0. As it goes down I want it to 100%, and when it reaches the bottom of my stage area I to just have the photo just disapear.
When I tried this with scale x,y it slowing shrinks as it goes down. I don't want it to slowly shrink as it goes down. I just want it to just disapear when it reaches the botton.

I have a generic 5" thick rectangular concrete roof layout with a single directional slope of 1:3.
Is there a way to have the bottom and upper edge-faces be square (Two Cut - Square) to the slope and not vertical (Two Cut - Plumb) ?
No facia applied to this roofing system. Just plane jane.

how do you create a square with a transparent fill (it has to go around part of a photograph)? I am using DP7. I can create the square with no fill, but how to get a black outline around it (to show that it's a square).

I'm new to Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 6 and to graphics in general.
In layman's terms I would like to know how this programme can auto detect a foreground image (any non-square/non-rectangular image), select it and then delete everything else around it.
Whatever is deleted around it needs to be transparent, not white, so that I can copy and paste the sole foreground image into Powerpoint so that the image doesn't end up with a square white background around it (especially when my Powerpoint template has a non white background).
I'm not working with finnicky images or detailed photos. They're mostly two colour stock images like black silhouettes of people against white backgrounds, so I thought that kind of image would be relatively easy to 'smart select' and separate from the contrasting background colour.
Can this Xara programme do this for me? If not, is there any other basic and cost effective programmes that can do this for me? It's literally the only editing function I need in a graphics programme.

For example, I have a 10cmx10cm grid with lines every 1cm. I want to turn this square into a triangle by reducing the length of the top edge to a single point. The final image should show the vertical lines reaching up towards the top centre, while still leaving the horizontal lines 1cm apart.
Using DISTORT will push the vertical lines up towards the top, producing uneven spaces between the lines. How do I avoid this? know it would be easy to recreate the desired triangular grid from scratch, but this is just an example of my problem. I need to apply the solution to graphics which cannot be reproduced again - i.e. bitmaps.

I've been an avid user of the Xara Graphics designer for about 2 years and I've been trying to deal with an annoying issue for quite some time when dealing with Shadows. I've come to realize that every shadow is given an outline and if I have a shape with a shadow that goes to the edge of my drawing the outline will actually continue passed the edge of my drawing. When I export the whole image the edge where the shadow outline bleeds over gets rendered as a blank margin. I've attached examples.
The shadow outline can be seen as the box bleeding over the edge...annoying....this is how it looks when I change the quality to "outline"
This is the actually image at "very high quality"....as you can see..the shadow outline edge has exported as empty margins around the graphic
The shadow outline grows or shrinks as I change the shadow blur...this can be seen in the "outline" view... I want to export to the edge of the colored area but I also want the shadow effect...

I know Xara provides a range a built in gradient fills (e.g. linear, spherical etc), but does it have the ability to have a gradient follow the edge of an object?

When I use the square selection tool, the selection edges are rounded rather than square. I can't remember how to rset this.
How do you make the edges square by default?

I'm using CS3 with a new computer and a 17in crt monitor. I set the monitor resolution via windows to 1280x1024. Made a 4 in square in Photoshop. It's square. When I change the resolution to anything less than 1280x1024 the square is taller than wide. It still shows 4x4 inches with the rulers.

When placing images in photoshop (CS6), their quality is diminished such that they are too blurry to edit. They're high quality photographs and scans... What am I doing wrong?

I took a photoshop class in HS and am fairly proficient with computers. It's tremendously blurred (the guy who took it apparently doesn't know how to focus an SLR camera) and I can't get it unblurred.

I have been using Photoshop CS3 for several years without a problem. This morning I started having problems with text. I created a new document and created a text block and when I type the font is extremely pixelated and blurred. I have tried different fonts, different sizes, and even new documents but nothing fixes the problem.
I think I accidently hit a combo of keystrokes that is causing the problem but I can't figure out which one.

Yesterday I discovered that when I load tiffs into CS5 they are slightly blurred and the colour changes, when I load them into windows paint they are crystal clear and the colour is as it should be. To double check I obrained some free tiffs online and they also show up blurred and with more colout saturation, this only seems to happen with tiffs and has stopped me dead in my tracks.
I have added an example of one of my photographs here, if you look closely you will see the photoshop image on the left loses detail and appears slighlty blurred, also the colour is more saturated. The windows paint version is crystal clear and the colour is true.
I just can't figure out why the free windows paint is opening up a clearer unaffected image whilst the premium photoshop software opens up a less clear and colour changed images...
Example..... In both images compare the small tree situated above the large post on the right, the thin branches on the "right hand" version are more detailed...

Well got some pics of my wedding, but some of them are blurry co'z of camera movement while he was taking those pics. And now I tried unsharp method + duplicate layer and set blending mode to overlay or soft light. It helps but not on very blurry pics.
