Thank you everyone. All sorted now.

Well, it looks like there's still a few people out there besides me using Xara Xtreme Pro 5.1? I've started using it again after a long gap and am reminded of a couple of annoyances I never did get...

Thanks people. I'll ask for PDF and see how we go.

Hi all.

I'm still back in the Xara Xtreme Pro 5 days.

Someone who doesn't own Xara will be supplying some graphics to me, and I've been asked what vector format I want them in.

What would be...

OK, got it sorted.

As Handrawn and Egg suggested, that list did indicate a bunch of separate layers. I never created them, so Xara must have done it for some reason or other as images were bought...

Hi all.

Can someone tell me what I've done to cause one or the other of these pairings to be grayed out, depending on the object selected:

"Bring to Front " and...

Thank you both for your replies.

Hi guys.

I was an early purchaser of Xara Xtreme Pro (v. 5.1.2.10703) and still using it.

Haven't been on here for quite a while and noticed all the talk now seems to be about Designer Pro.

Many thanks --- all fixed.

Hi all.

I'm still using Xara Xtreme Pro 5, because it does everything I need and so I have never seen a reason to upgrade.

But there are three problems that are becoming annoying, one of which...

Hi folks.

Probably a very elementary question, but...

Xara Xtreme Pro 5.

A simple example: I place a shape over an image or another shape and press Ctrl-4. The result is a cutout of the...

Unfortunately very little activity.

I have managed to find quite a few useful tutorial-type videos on YouTube, but a responsive forum is badly needed for this promising but quite complex program,...

OK, with a bit more searching and jiggling my search terms I found a stack of interesting single-feature videos on YouTube by a guy who goes by the handle Skavaen.

Still keen to hear any other...

After receiving a promo from Xara, I downloaded the free trial of MAGIX Movie Edit Pro MX Plus, but I find myself unable to make much progress with assessing its value to me without a...

Hi all.

I'm using Xara Xtreme Pro 5.1.2

I have a portrait photograph that is fine in most respects but there is a shiny patch (light reflection) on the forehead and on the nose.

Is there an...

Say I use the extrusion to tool on a line of text, and format it with angles, lighting, etc until it appears just the way I want.

Is there a quick way I can copy those same...

Actually, confusion is forgivable.

In the Pro 5 Help file, in the list of galleries, Clipart Gallery is listed and there is no mention of a Designs Gallery in the list.

Then further down on the...

Thanks guys, I must have done a mis-click somewhere along the line.

That's the one I've been looking for!

Actually, I'm at a loss as to how I didn't discover it myself, as I'm a right-click maniac by long habit.

Many thanks.

Hi all.

When opening Xara Xtreme Pro 4 or clicking the New Drawing button, the new sheet isn't clean and bare like it should be, but has several objects on it. It looks like the default new page...

Hey Sledger! Sorry about the lack of acknowledgment -- looks like I missed the notification e-mail and clean forgot that I'd asked the questions.

Anyway, a belated thanks for the tips.

Hi folks.

Two questions about rulers in Xara Extreme Pro 4.


1. Is there a way to configure Xara to have the rulers showing all the time by default?

2. Is there a quick shortcut to...

Thanks Bob -- that does the job nicely.

Hi folks.

Is it possible to copy a three-color repeating fill from one shape to another, maintaining all the same dimensions as to length and angle of the "control arms" (what are those things...

I purchased a Dell Mini-9 just to see what they're all about.

Apart from Firefox, I haven't loaded any applications onto it, but it's proving very useful just as it is.

I have all my RoboForm...
