    Re: XXP5 discs being delivered

    There is no 'need'. It doesn't even work to prevent piracy, as a quick search for Xtreme at the usual file-sharing sites will demonstrate.

    But I'm not here to argue about the specifics of Magix's...

    Re: XXP5 discs being delivered

    Can Xara or anyone who has received the CD comment on what (if any) copy protection/DRM is present?

    Is the same Magix CD-install-required annoyance still present as with X4? Or (worse), any kind...

    Re: best dpi for web design?

    dpi settings are irrelevant on the web and will be ignored by web browsers, which will display your images at 1:1 pixels. Xtreme may internally think that a pixel is 1/96 of an inch, but that...

    You are very likely being bitten by the dreaded gAMA chunk.

    That is: some software saves PNGs with embedded gamma-curve colour correction information in an attempt to match colours over different...

    Re: Export .xar docs into generic formats?

    Offer him PDF. This is a commonly-used vector graphics format for print jobs and Xtreme can export it fine.

    Xtreme *can* export to Photoshop (PSD), but that's a bitmap graphics application, so...

    Re: trace or draw

    agree, trace it by hand. Xtreme's tracer is very poor at tracing line drawings like this, and even those programs with better drawing tracers (eg. Inkscape) won't be able to get much useful from an...

  11. Re: Web Design possibilities in Xtreme 5 ? Is editing the pages possible ?

    That's not really the distinction. Xtreme is good at fixed, graphics-based brochure-like sites, and for rapid prototyping. It's poor at dynamic, content-based, interactive sites; that's not really...

    It looks like the software in question can't handle any kind of curve, instead flattening them out to ugly straight lines.

    This is only really true when making a bitmap from an image perspectivised by the mould tool. It's an issue here because the mould tool renders images without proper anti-aliasing (even in VHQ mode),...

  16. Re: Loading graphics - control the order of appearance?

    “Control”? No, this is the web, browsers will do what they want.

    But Xtreme will export HTML in back-to-front order, so if you use ^B to move a graphic to the back of the canvas, its image will...
  17. Re: Updated trial versions of Pro 5.1 and Xtreme 5.1

    No new problems, but this is still broke. Please, is there any chance of a fix before Xtreme 6? It would seem a trivially simple bug to solve.

    Re: Font in Xara Browser

    Welcome to the web. Fonts never render the same across different browsers/platforms/settings. Even changing the anti-aliasing settings on your Windows install can change the metrics of the font.

    I can confirm what Dahzee said. Your site is infected by an iframe injector from bigbestlite.cn, leading to the usual Flash and PDF exploits.
