Xara :: Text To Follow A Radius Using Fit To Curve
Nov 3, 2011
i've been using xara pgd for a few months now and absolutely love it. massive jump up from my old program which was very limiting (graphic design is a hobby / business necessity, not my full time gig).
so my first question to you good peeps: i've been trying to "bend" text to follow a radius using 'fit to curve' ... this has been problematic as the text wants to align itself at the end of the curve rather than the middle.
is there another way to bend text to a specified radius?

For some reason I am unable to create text to follow a curved path. For example, I created a simple curved line using the shape editor tool. After selecting the completed line I select the main text tool (the other text tool, fit text to curve, is grayed out and not selectable). However, wherever I insert the cursor along the curved line I still end up with a straight line of text. After much experimentation I still cannot figure it out. I know I am leaving out a simple step.

Using: Xara Photo & Graphic Design 6
AMD Athlon II X2 255 Processor 3.10 GHz
2.00GB (1.75 GB usable) RAM
64-bit OS
I follow the tutorial in the Xara Help, but cannot get the results shown. I draw the circle, compose the text, and set it to the middle Select both circle and text Arrange/Fit Text to Curve....the text appears around the lower, right side of the cirle After all this I am unable to manipulate the text (It's a piece of cake to do this in Publisher 2010, but it has some minor problems in appearance)

When I fit a line of text to a curve, it never quite 'fits.' The text is always skewed across the curve, instead of being 'on' the curve. Is there a way to fit the text exactly on the curve/line?

I am trying to construct text on a curve by writing it on a circle's circumference, but the cirlce fills and so overlays any predrawn items beneath it.

Is it possible to have a gradient follow a certain path or curve?
It seems the gradient tool will only go in a straigt line.

I can get curtain walling to follow a curve in plan. Is it possible to get it to follow a slope as well as the curve. i.e base curve of 25m dia and the top curve 20m dia at 6m high. the end result would be a curved sloped cutain wall.

There is a brick-like pattern on a geological cross section I could draw this in manually but any way to do it automatically so there is a uniform horizontal distance between vertical separators? I tried creating a brick type swatch, but this created horizontal lines which did not follow the curve of the stratum.

i want to create a sketch line for a sweep where the radius of the curve varies.. i don't want to use a spline or piece together arcs.. something about distance and radius along the line.. is there a formula and can this be done in revit?

minimum turning radius of cat 777f at 30km/hr? need to figure out the horizontal curves to use for this.we have been using 60 to 100m curves but i think it maybe smaller. small curves works with these steep terrain.

I want to make a curve label with all its elements (radius,tangent...) and the data of widenning and superelevation on the curve?. I attached the label that I want to create on C3D.

The association between design speed (V) and radius of circular curve (R),
As the R is positively related to V according to the equation (attached), then I expect that the C3D changes R value as the value of V is changed.
For example, on the attached screenshots, the R value of horizontal alignment is built based on a design speed of 100km/hr. Now if the speed is changed to 50km/hr, then why the value of R is not automatically changed to be compatible with the new speed?

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?

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?

I cant see how to do this but there must be a simple way of doing it. Howe do I have pointed corners for the top left and top right then curved bottom left / bottom right of a rectangle that I create. I tried unlocking the shape but it still seems to do all or nothing. Am I missing something obvious?

I have a blend from a small rectangle with 5 steps, so in total 7 small ones.
Beside I have drawn a circle, and so selecting the blend, with shift click also the circle, I would like with Blend Tool apply the Rotate along curve function.
But somehow that is not active, only the Fit Blend to curve, but would need rather the rotate.
what it depends whether the Rotate along curve button is active in Blend tool?

The outline of this small fish drawing on paper, it seems with one continuous curve, so in XDPX9 that should be logically with Smooth joins and Making curves
Smooth_join.xar
According to your experience is there maybe some tactic where to put the control handle points? At the curves or rather where the line is straight? After around some minutes probably in any way can be drew around, I am searching the logic rather which decrease that time.

see attached picture, is it possible to trim the parts of the curve that go beyond the shape? In a CAD programme you can just trim these away and join whats left to form your shape.
By the way i am trying out the trial of Autodesk sketch book designer, (not to be confused with sketchbook pro). it has vector graphics in it and has some neat ideas xara could benefit from. Check out the video, i like the direct transformable fills. also the way lines are handled.

how to curve text within a shape, as paragraph text, not artistic text? (See my attached image.)
I have drawn the shape, inserted the text as paragraph text, but the text always wants to sit straight. I am so frustrated as I can find a workaround in either Corel or Adobe CS products. I have tried using artistic text in Corel, but have to do it line by line - and this brings other problems, such as I cant justify each line with each other, and sometimes a character jumps up relative to the other characters and the entire paragraph does not taper in...so this is not a solution, apart from the fact it will take me FOREVER to insert line by line....I would like to treat the text as a multiple line paragraph, and follow the shape.

how to curve text so that it looks like the one in the bottom of this picture?
i want to remake this image but i cannot figure out how to make the same curve of the words: MEDICAL ASSOCIATION.
i have tried creating a Path with half of a similar oval and then used the Type on a Path tool and i have tried using the Pen to draw a Path but it looks aweful and of course i hae tried the Warped Text tool but the only option for what i need is the Arc Lower which doesn't give the result i need no matter how i adjust the tool.
