What's new in version 6
Xara3D 6 is our quickest, easiest and most useful Xara3D yet. Here's why.
New design types
Xara3D 5's automatic 3D button maker proved very popular, so we've taken the same concept to offer
other one-click transformations—enormously increasing the type of graphics you can create.


Borders. Adds a customizable border around your heading, giving it instant added impact.


Boards. Sits your heading on a solid customizable board, so the image appears to emerge from a
solid background.


Boards and holes. The reverse of boards—gives an impression of a cut-out image.
There are also two new bevel types
from which to choose.
New easier-to-use look and feel
The new UI brings Xara3D right up to date and makes it significantly quicker and easier to use,
including:


A new, modern look and feel.


Convenient and time saving docking windows and toolbars

.


New context sensitive menus, all fully customizable.
More interactive tools
Current Xara3D users will know how easy it is to move objects and change shadows in Xara3D just by
clicking and dragging. We've now applied the same ease of use to extrusion, bevel depth and moving text
on a design—simply drag on the image, and see the result instantly! It's far more intuitive, and a real time
saver—great for experimentation.
Greater control over movie export
You can now select to save a 3D animation in any AVI format. So, for example if you have the correct
codec installed you can create DivX or MPEG4 movies of your favorite 3D animations, and you can
control the compression and other settings for each movie type.
