How do I do this is Xara?

[Black Panther]

Great work csehz, i like your work with the blend tool, sometimes you need to adjust the blend manually as Mike said in post #5 not only for the white space but as general with the blend work.

Most of the time I still get the same result as Rik.

I played with this, as a brush, and I am comfortable with the result. I use the brush (attached) and then edit the Spacing until the smoothness is acceptable. I also eliminate as many nodes as the design permits. My feeble attempt.

[Citywolf]

Okay, I'll stop. But, I think the attached can match my original question. It is a brush with 4 colors plus brushes for each of the colors, smoothed by Spacing. Critique welcome. WDFII

A sweet solution. The blend method is limiting as it can create gaps if the line is complex.
Here's my attempt using your brushes.

[Citywolf]

Well done and thanks for the compliment. In retrospect I realize I do not need the individual color brushes and that I could have just used a line set to proper width with a butt end.

Never mind I have it figured out now.

Hi all, sorry I missed all the questions.

csehz: yes the diagram you posted in your last post (post #8) is correct and is how it should look/work. I've attached an example as well, which also shows what shaped line I originally used.

Rik: is it possible that you didn't have the 1:1 node mapping option set in the blend infobar? I only ask because I got something a bit similar (not quite as extreme though) when I first blended the two lines, until I used this setting.

Larry: was this the same thing that was causing your problem too or was it something else?

Regards

Thanks Su just again, I have just continued with the circles in the attached file, for sure someone can do it more beautiful but it is sure so that possible to do in Xara Moreover even easier with the Blend tool
