Maybe but probably no one will have used it and then there are so many versions.

Though it seems unlikely that it's missing some routines because it does work the first run.

Well I didn't even try to save, I just opened a complex file navigated around it for a while, moved some things and then closed it. Next time I opened xara p&g designer (starting with the default...

Well it does run but then the second+ time it won't.

Ok I know Xara doesn't officially support linux but here's the thing.

I installed Xara photo and graphics designer 2013 MX on wine and it seems to work fine, no problem. But then I start it up the...

I am wondering, how far back versions are some people still using that are still current and usable for them today?

Ok it seems to have worked, I opened a few files and got the ram usage up to 2.7gb

So thanks to gwpriester for the idea.

Now I'll be able to take my time and decide what to do in a few months....

Lol yes of course I have 64bit windows, I may have overlooked the lack of 64bit in P&G Designer but I'm not silly enough to overlook it for the OS.

I was just wondering if I used the patcher the...

So does anyone know if I use the NTcore patcher program will this cause any problems with licensing issues with P&G Designer?

Could you suggest different vector software that would suit my usage more?
Xara Designer Pro could be one of the options...

I've only ever used Xara P&G, Inkscape and the old Sodipodi so I dont...

Ok I might consider it. I'm waiting for now because Inkscape has fixed many of the issues why I left before but there is one more thing that I have submitted a bug report about and if it could be...

Yes I have backups of course.

I'm not entirely dependent on it in the sense that I have all the original images and sizing data. So even if I lost all my backups or have to move to a new program I...

I could subdivide objects into groups, one file per group; however I still have to move them around in-between groups.

So I would have to open multiple .xar documents instead of just one, since I...

I am arranging hundreds of products and combinations of products into categories on backdrops to export as images.

Hello,

I would be happy to pay up to 50% extra to upgrade my P&G Designer to a pro version with 64bit.

But there is no pro version, the only pro version is like rebuying P&G designer + buying...

Thanks for all the replies.

I will look into the 4gb memory patch because it will be a good temporary transitional measure to keep it going for a bit longer until I can redesign everything in...

Hello, thanks, this issue is fixed.

Is there any way around the 32bit memory limit of P&G Designer?

It is always saying it's getting low on memory and crashing sometimes even though it's only using about 1.5gb and I have 16gb of...

Thanks, yes I know that works if you have very distinct filenames that are easy to remember but if you have a long list of model codes it's less useful.

The sort by date last saved works much...

Lol yes sometimes it helps to write down the question to get me thinking about possible solutions, especially sometimes people suggest different ideas and it gets me thinking about alternative...

Yeah I could resize the whole rectangle but ideally I just want to resize the bitmap within the rectangle. ie by clicking the fill tool then clicking on the rectangle then using the handles to resize...

Oh ok, by adding the window options icons to the menu.
Thanks that will work.

I would slightly prefer the arrow key method though if I could constrain it to the x axis.

OK I fixed it, you have to go to the extra sort by choices and choose "date last saved" instead of "date".

Now it puts the file that was saved last (ie. the one I'm working on) at the top of the...

Actually it's still causing a problem, the sorting.

It seems to only sort by when the file was created, not by when it was modified. This is probably a Windows problem rather than a Xara one, but...

Actually a good way is to sort the icons (previews) in the export dialog by modified, this was the first thing I thought of but I could never get it to work for some strange reason (it would never...

Usually I am working on an object that I then export as a jpg based on the object selection which is included as an image in a website, after I see what the image looks like in the website I think...
