Hi,
we have Xara xtreme pro 5 and for some reason when the mouse goes over the cormer of an object, instead of an arrow in a 45 degree angle we get a cross-arrow, and if I press ctrl and drag the corner the size jumps in steps of 1 cm.
I have searched the forum, internet and I tried what I could think of, but I cannot find what we pressed that makes the handler change.
Could someone give me a hint please.
Kind regards,
Jan
you have the 'lock aspect ratio' off
in selector tool look for the padlock icon on the infobar to the right of hight and width dimensions
Hi Jan
Yup, been there myself. Solution. While using the selector tool, go up on top to the selector toolbar and in the middle, you will see an icon of a padlock. If this is depressed, it alows you drag a corner but keep the proportions, hight vs width. When it is deselected, you get this cross arrow, which allows you to drag a corner and change all the dimensions. Sometimes you want it to work this way but I usually keep it selected which is the default

Mind you, the time in the bar does say '04:18pm'
In my opinion, if you are going to use that format, then 'am' and 'pm' should not be used. For that, it should say 4:18pm. The zero should be omitted.
But, that's only my opinion.
probably a fixed length field in the program code Rik - 'spaces' not allowed
Thanks,
I could not figure that out.
Silly how a little detail suddenly slips your mind, my wife was designing a christmas card asking me why it does not work and I just couldnät figure it out. Must be getting old . . .
Kind regards,
Jan
