Xara X supports multicolor gradient fills. To add a color, simply drag a color from the screen palette and drop it onto the fill path. Once the color is on the fill path, you can slide it to a new position, and/or modify the color in the Color Editor.

Add the color shown in the center of the fill path. Make a duplicate copy of the text (Ctrl D) We will need it in a few minutes.

Xara's new Bevel Tool is a as much fun as one can have and not get arrested.

Select the Bevel Tool, then click the text to select it. From the drop down list of Bevel Types (on the Infobar), select Rounded. Slide the Contrast slider to the right until it reads 80. Click the icon with the four arrows facing inward to create an Inner Bevel, and click the inverted U icon to select Round Join. From the drop down list of Slider Types ,  select Size. Change the size setting to 10.
