You can fill the center of any object in Xara LX with any one of a set of different types of fill. You can apply fills to QuickShapes, shapes and even text. If you apply a fill to a compound object (a blend, mold or group) it affect all the objects in it.
You can use any of the following types of fill (click for more information):
Using Fills
Once you have applied a fill to an object you can change its size, position, direction and the colors it uses as well as the way the colors change across the fill. With bitmap fills you can change the bitmap used and with fractal fills you can change the properties of the fractal.
Tips
You can only apply fills to shapes, not lines. However you can convert a line to a shape. See Converting a line into a shape.
If you just want to fill an object with a plain color (a flat fill), see Changing an object's fill color.
If you don't want to see fill arrows and transparency arrows when dragging, press TAB when in the Fill Tool or Transparency Tool.
