Select the Transparency Tool on the main tool bar.

Click the contoured shape to select it. From the drop down list of Transparency Shapes on the left side of the Infobar, select, Linear. Reposition the fill path arrow so the non transparent end is on the top and the transparent end is on the bottom. Extend the top and bottom of the fill path arrow slightly above and below the contoured shape.

Select the beveled text and the transparent highlight by holding down the Shift key on your keyboard while clicking each object.

From the Arrange pull down menu, select Create Bitmap Copy... In the Create Bitmap Options dialog, select True Color from the Color Depth drop down list. Press Create to create the copy. The bitmap copy is now placed in the exact center of your screen.

NOTE to CorelDRAW users: Unlike CorelDRAW which permanently changes your image into a bitmap, the original vector image remains in Xara and can still be edited.
