Your three posts to this thread have been hidden because a) they are wholly irrelevant to the original question, and b) they seem to include confidential data like order and serial numbers.

Looking at your posting history I see you have posted similar data several times and have always been told that you should not do this!

As a result, your access to these forums has been removed with immediate effect. I also see that you have previously been temporarily banned from the forums for similar behaviour. Regrettably, the ban must now become permanent.

Hi

. . . . How do you replicate or duplicate an object around a circle equally? . . . .

I do not have Xara Designer Pro X, however in Webdesigner which is a sub feature of Designer Pro it can be done as follows, it is not elegant however it does work.

Note: it is important not to select any object after the first clone.

I am so sorry, I never saw any answer before. That was a really rude remark from the moderator. You would think I am selling how to make a bomb. This software is not straightforward to get to know. When you are used to using Corel or Affinity you hope to have similar features.

Hi,

If you are referring to the post by Jeff, it was not directed at you but at someone else whose post has been hidden and that person has been banned.

Your question is a good one.

See answer #3 of this thread on the TalkGraphics forum. It is similar to what John EB mentioned.

Oh thank goodness - thank you for letting me know.

Hi,

I'm glad I jumped in.

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, another way is to create a brush with the object and use that.

In the image, I used a couple of different brushes, one of them with footsteps. I used the freehand & brush tool to set the brush, then created a circle, made the fill transparent and thickened the line to make the footprints larger. In the second one with footprints, I just cloned it and changed the brush to a line with a different thickness.

I am using Xara Designer Pro X 19.

@browj2 I was looking to do something similar.

However, wanted a specific number of objects in a circle or aligned to a circle. Say a circle with 10 footsteps, and when the circle is resized, the number of footsteps is not increased, but all sized up as well.

I will use @johnebaker suggestion for now. Is there a technically correct way to do this via align, or another tool or feature I am missing? Thanks.

Using Designer Pro X 19.

Hi Mark,

For the scatter brush, click on Edit and change the spacing. However, it's not as exact as the other method whereby you have to do some calculations.

I suggest that you join the TalkGraphics forum and ask there as well.
