Possible bug in Designer Pro 16
Hi,
With individual cells in tables, I am finding that I cannot place tab stops within. It worked in 15, but not in 16.
With the text cursor in an individual cell, I drag the tab stop to where I want it, then it simply disappears and does not get placed.
If I open a version 15 DPX file where this has successfully been done (in 15), they are present, but cannot be edited.
I am thinking this is a bug as Xara did do some work on tables for version 16 of DPX
Can someone who has DPX 16 verify this?
Note: I have also sent Xara a support request about this.

Hi Promidi,
Many thanks for your message, I can produce this as well, I'll check with the developers and log an issue with them.
Kind Regards
Rob

Yes... and there's one more....
If you 'merge' two cells, you no longer can reposition a row or column.

Also.... we're back to NOT being able to 'alt' stretch a picture. Was, is, working fine in ver15.

maybe smart transform is set on by default in the new insatalation ?

No handrawn... checked out every config... but... the only way I just found out how to do it is to apply the a 'Mould' to it first. Either 'Envelop or Perspective'
Then just the mouse alone with push/pull/stretch etc.

Here are the steps that work for me.
Import Table 04.
Enable Selection bound handles so when you select an image you get the black control squares and not the round blue circles.
Check Smart Transform is off.
Click and drag a mid-point control.

I have "smart transform" off, but I switched it on for this test. I held down "ALT" before adjusting a border of an image and it distorted correctly. Remember, you have to be in scale mode for this to work.

Hi cmpan1,
Thank you for your report. Whilst I don't believe it's possible to move merged cells (I don't think this is possible in Excel or Sheets either) it should at least let you move other cells / rows that don't contain merged cells. I have logged this with our developers also to investigate.
Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
