Importing CMX files
You can import Corel CMX version 5 and 6 files. As CMX is not LX's native file format, the file may contain some objects that do not have direct equivalents. Below is a list of objects that may not import as you expect them to.
Fills.
Multiple color (custom) graduated fills are imported with just the end
colors. Other grad fills work. Postscript and Vector (full color) pattern
fills are not supported. Any objects imported with them will not be filled.
Bitmaps.
Cropped bitmaps will appear as rectangles with a bitmap fill.
Text.
Underlined text is not supported by Xara LX. Individually rotated letter
will not appear rotated.
Molds.
CMX does not support molds, the objects will appear as ready-molded shapes.
Blends.
CMX does not support blends. All the blend steps will appear as shapes.
Clipping. The outlines of
PowerClip and Place Inside containers are approximated.
Lenses. You can only import
Transparency, Color Add and Color Limit lenses.
Outlines. If you have an
object with a behind fill, Xara LX will import the shape without the behind
fill.
Tiling. Some tiling options
such as offset-tiling will not import correctly.
If Problems Occur. If any of these limitations cause problems, try saving the .CMX file from CorelDRAW as EPS and import that instead. If a file is found to load incorrectly, please send the file to Technical Support with full details so we can fix the problem. See Getting Help for further details.
