This is a BIG advantage, because it not only saves time, but also keeps the creative work and the image itself at the center of your focus. With Xara Designer Pro's Direct Action Tools, you can apply all these effects on the object itself - without having to enter any numbers in a dialog box! And the changes take place instantly - it's as close to using your hands as you will get with a graphics package. Traditionally, to apply these sort of effects you would need to enter values in a dialog box and they are transferred to the drawing. For example you can drag across an object to apply a graduated color (in the fill tool) or transparency (in the transparency tool), or drag on a shadow to position it (in the shadow tool), or drag on an object to rotate it in 3D (in the 3D extrude tool). Xara Designer Pro's Direct Action Tools allow you to create effects such as transparency, bevels or gradient fills by selecting the tool then dragging over the image itself to affect the required change.
