to download a free copy in the XaraXone Shareware page. Copy the bitmap to the clipboard (Ctrl C or Edit > Copy).
Minimize Xara, and open SL
Blur. The entire application is what you see here on the left. Press the clipboard icon on the left to paste the bitmap into the editing window.
Move the slider to about 8. Check the Add Border
check box. Press the water drop icon to apply the blur. Press the Copy icon (to the left of the hand icon) to copy the bitmap to the clipboard. We are done with SL Blur.
For this next step, we'll be
using a cool little Xara helper called SL Blur to blur the bitmap copy we just created.
Return to the Xara window. Select Paste from the
Edit pull down menu to retrieve the bitmap. A dialog will appear asking how you want to paste the bitmap copy. Chose the first option, Bitmap and press Paste.
