Xara :: How To Add Object To A Group

Apr 9, 2012

how to add an object to a group?

As I remember somewhere read that there is some way of it without ungrouping, however now reading the Designer Pro help it seems that is needed

To add more objects to a group

Select the group.
Ungroup ("Ctrl + U")
Select the extra objects.
Group again ("Ctrl + G")

Basically this group is a repeating object on several pages so maybe would not touch that with ungrouping, but of course if there will be no other choice

Xara :: Right-click Drag On Object Within Group

Oct 4, 2011

Right-click drag on an object is a neat way of quickly cloning an object.

If you do this on an object that is part of a group (by using CTRL click to select inside first) then you see the clone of the object as you drag it but it disappears the moment you let go of the mouse button.

Illustrator :: Can Modify Only Appearance Of Object Within Group That Only Has One Object?

Oct 17, 2012

I'm using CS5. When I click on an object within a group containing only that object, appearance tap shows the group's appearance. I can't select the object when the group only has one object. So if I want to modify the object, I have to ungroup or add additional object into the group.

Xara :: Editing Group Content

May 28, 2011

If I have some items that are grouped. In XDP6, I used to be able to double-click on one part of it and edit the colors etc. If text was grouped, then you could double-click on the text and edit that.

Well, in XDP7, if you double-click on a part of grouped objects, you are now taken to another page called 'Edit Inside...'

I don't want to be taken to another page because the things I wanted to be able to see at the same time are on the original page.

Is there a way of stopping this annoying 'Edit Inside..' page opening up?

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 :: Tool To Adjust Contrast Of Group?

Dec 30, 2012

Is there a tool to correct the colors of shapes in a group in Designer Pro x?

I mean something that can change contrast, brightness and saturation of all colors in the group at once.

For now I use the bitmap filter "Enhance" but sadly the outlines become jaggy by this.

Xara :: How To Group Rectangle Filled With Color To Some Text

May 6, 2012

I am brand new to web design and I have Web Designer 6.0. I've looked at video instructions and can not figure this out. I am trying to group a simple rectangle filled with color to some text that will make the rectangle in the background, the text in front, and be one object. It says choose both objects and then group them, but I can choose the rectangle or the text, but not both. I know this is a simple thing to do, but I'm brand new and can't figure it out.

Xara :: Close Documents Dialog When Exiting Edit Group Mode?

Sep 21, 2011

When X7 and its Group Editing mode first came out, there were grumblings about the "Closing Document" dialog that appears when clicking on the little "X" found on the Edit Inside tab.

I am sure most folks have found that can all be bypassed (assuming you want to keep the edits you just made). But for those that haven't, simply click the Save Icon in the Standard Toolbar.

CorelDRAW X6 :: Selecting Object In A Drop Shadow Group

Aug 28, 2012

drop shadow group.cdr

I've asked this in the X5 board before, gave up, and it's still bugging me with X6.

[URL].......

So I group a few objects, apply drop shadow to the group, and now I want to select one of the object in the group (to move it or resize it, etc).

I just can't find an effective way to do this without discarding the drop shadow, edit, and reapply the drop shadow. There have been many suggestion that seems to work for certain people, i.e. Ctrl+Click, Ctrl+Alt+Click, Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Click, but none works as desire.

In the attached example, I try to select the red square. If I Ctrl+Click, it selects the whole group. If I Ctrl+Alt+Click,  it either selects the yellow circle, or edits the drop shadow.

If I Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Click, the result is random. It either selects the blue background square, or selects the yellow circle, or edits the drop shadow, and once in a blue moon successfully selects the red square.

CorelDRAW X6 :: Edit Object In A Group With Drop Shadow

Aug 27, 2013

I have 3 objects A, B, C, I group them together, apply a drop shadow.Now, let's say I need to resize or reposition one of them, I'm unable to select the particular object.

It's suppose to work with Alt+Ctrl+Click, but it doesn't.I always end up with editing the drop shadow rather than selecting the object. It's very trouble some needing to discard the drop shadow, make the changes, and re-apply the drop shadow.

VideoStudio :: How To Fade Titles And Background / Group Title Elements To One Object

Feb 27, 2012

I use titles a lot with VS x4 and have a couple of questions. I often use the backgrounds available in VS x4 under the titles to add style and make them more visible. I usually fade up to the title and fade back out again. However, when I do this, the title itself fades fairly smoothly but the background looks terrible. Is there any way to get titles and backgrounds to fade in/out together s-m-o-o-t-h-l-y?

Edit: Here's a video from YouTube: [URL].....

Watch the background for "Just a Good Read"... as the title fades off at the end of this title sequence, the background doesn't fade -- it just sort of snaps off. I really like the background but want it to fade in/out smoothly with the title.

Another question about titles: Is there any way to group title elements together so that they become one object? I created a complex title with lots of little elements such as dashes. However, when I move any one element, the others don't move, and lining them up again is a pain. Can I associate these items to create a single object in which everything is moved (and for that matter, sized) together?

AutoCAD 2010 :: How To Split Solid Object Into Group Of 3D Polygon Meshes

Dec 17, 2012

I drew a solid model of a structure in Autocad 2010. By using that model, I want to make a FEM analysis in Sap2000. The problem is that Sap2000 takes only polygon meshes (not solids) in 3d. The question is that how can i make a group of polygon meshes of the solid model that represents the structure.

(Since i am not an expert of Autocad, i will be glad if the solution is explained in a simple language.)

Illustrator :: How To Create Object / Group And Copy Across One Document In Multiple Places

Nov 27, 2012

Is there a way to create an object/group in Illustrator and then copy it across one document in multiple places (multiple art boards, etc.) - allowing the designer to then update the original and seeing the changes cascade to all copies?
 
I know this can be done using InDesign by linking an Illustrator file and making subsequent updates to that Illustrator file.  But I do not want to use InDesign, I want to use Illustrator.  What I want is much like creating Symbols in Flash, updating one will cascade throughout the file.

Xara :: How To Add Noise To Object

Mar 10, 2011

Setup: Designer pro 6.1

How to add noise?

I looked up `noise' in help file and it mentions distortion filters but for some unimaginable reason... does not mention where they are.

Ok, looked up `distortion'... It tells about distortion filters but again... Showing an almost insane way to organize.... again it is not mentioned where they are.

how to add noise to an object? The help file has failed its most basic role... and has left it to my imagination as to where these filters may be.

Xara :: Exporting Object As PNG With Transparency?

Feb 1, 2011

Import a photo image which is, for example, 100px high by 500px long. Now apply a simple fade transparency from the left edge to 100% transparent 100px in from the left edge (i.e. 400px of the image's length is now 'invisible').

Export this as a png and then import this png. It will still be 100 x 500 - can you tell Xara export the image truncated down just the 'visible' portion (i.e. 100 x 100)?

Xara :: Transparency On Contour Object

Sep 10, 2013

How to make a Contour object transparent? In below example is set a 1 step contour on the star, setting transparency the yellow is transparent but the grey not.

Contour_Transp.xar

I am aware that the star could be turned to editable shape, after clone and subtract so the transparency could be controlled on both shapes, but is there maybe some other way?

Also could be a way of course to set outline for the star and not contour, but I do not like as in that case the line half inside and half outside of the shape.

Xara :: Object Snapping Does Not Work?

My "Magic Snap"[magnetic object snapping] has vanished/stopped working. Turning the magnet icon on and off does not do anything .I am using the latest Xara Designer Pro version [7.1.1.17261]. Is there any way to get it back without re-installing? I'm tired of having to re-install every time something goes wrong [which is kinda frequent]. I don't like having to reset the xara function icons each time [I use a different arrangement than the garden variety supplied].

I am using an i5 processor and have 8 gigs of memory running with Windows 7 OS.
