<div>Thanks, Julian.</div>
<div>Are there more drawing tools? Maybe some that are not accessible from the drawing tools menu in the drawing editor?</div>
<div>Specifically, an instructor has created a good deal of learning in PowerPoint 2007, using tables, rounded rectangles, gradient fills and shadows extensively. (actually looks quite nice...) I wonder if I would be able to make these drawing objects in the native Xerte format or would just have to bring them in as image files?
</div>
<div>Is there a PowerPoint XML to Xerte XML import tool?</div>
<div>Thanks for the great product (good for Authorware "refugees").</div>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div>Just installed Xerte. Looks like a nice tool.</div>
<div>A few issues right away, though:</div>
<ol>
<li>So far, the menu items at "Edit -> Options" and at "Templates -> Templates..." do not open anything when I click on them.
<li>Are there gradient fills? How does one get all of the options in the drawing tool that are available in its screenshot in the help file?</li></li></ol>
<div>Thanks,</div>
