I first noticed it with Altap Salamander, a file manager I've used for many years, which in fact seems to have some issues with Windows 7 and all its user account control quirks. But I tried dragging...

I just bought Xara Photo & Graphic Designer, and cannot drag bitmaps (jpg, gif, png) from a file manager into an open Xara file. Can't drag them onto the Xara title bar to open them as separate...

I've heard a number of people--mainly Gary--tell all those who have been asking for a simple text underline capability, why they are wrong to want it. Not too helpful.

What I haven't heard anyone...

The use of underscore on the web is the most clear and obvious reason this feature should have been put in Xara years ago. It is often useful to graphically create underlined text to represent...

I second the request for underlined text. With all Xara's extraordinary advanced features and performance, virtually every graphics program in the world has it beat here.

This has often been...

This worked! Thanks,

For viewing Xara thumbnails and a thousand other reasons, I highly recommend Servant Salamander, a Czech-made file manager which uses Pictview as a plug-in for graphics, including .xar files and...

Has anyone received the "boxed version" of Xara X1 yet? Can you describe the manual? # of pages, illustrations, etc?

thanks

I've brought up the lack of underlined text in Xara before on this forum, and the reponse has been a universal yawn. Forgive me for bringing it up again.

I know that underlining is considered by...

Great, that worked! Thanks.

All of a sudden, when I click- or drag-select text in Xara, there is no visual indication that the text is selected--i.e. the normal reversed color of selected text. I can tell it is selected because...

I also have an extreme system slowdown with applying glow shadows, to the point where I just won't use it--xara will seem to freeze for several minutes, and other applications on my machine will slow...

Just a reminder: while many Wacom tablets are expensive, the Graphire is quite reasonable--well under $100 (that's about $70 pounds, right?). Myself, I came across a reconditioned one with full...

Klaus, you're right about the alternative OS's to Windows--they don't run enough great graphics software to be serious contenders, at least not currently. But this doesn't tell me that Windows is a...

Gary,

Here's why any graphics tool with an eye to the web should support underlined text: virtually everyone who uses the internet knows that underlined text denotes a link. It is the standard,...

As a followup to my question, it occurs to me that Xara is associated with buyfonts.com, and for them to publish a handful of free underlined fonts would be a lovely gesture, given this inability...

Given Xara's inability to underline text--perhaps the most fundamental feature missing in this otherwise brilliantly capable program--has anyone ever come across, or created, any simple fonts that...

Keeper,

I apologize for my misleading directions--I've been using versions of the beta for long enough that I've forgotten which features are new. Version 1.52 uses only the internal text viewer;...

Thanks much, Ivan. I suspected that Illustrator might be what I needed. Now the challenge is finding a good deal on it so I don't have to take out a second mortgage on my home.

Friends,

I do 95% of my illustration work in Xara, 5% in CorelDraw, and virtually none in Freehand 8, which I bought years ago before discovering Xara.

However, I occasionally get Illustrator...
